The Evolution of Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneur is derived from the French entreprendre, meaning “to undertake.”
The entrepreneur is one who undertakes to organize, manage, and assume the risks of a business.
Although no single definition of entrepreneur exists and no one profile can represent today’s entrepreneurs, research is providing an increasingly sharper focus on the subject.

A Summary Description of Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship (Robert C. Ronstadt)
The dynamic process of creating incremental wealth.
This wealth is created by individuals who assume major risks in terms of equity, time, and/or career commitment of providing value for a product or service.
The product or service itself may or may not be new or unique but the entrepreneur must somehow infuse value by securing and allocating the necessary skills and resources.
