Who is enterpreneur?
J.B say defined in 1800:

the enterpreneaur shifts economic resouces out of an area of lower and into an area of higher productivity and greater yield But there is confusion over the definition for e.g in USA it is defined as one who starts his own new and small business So, not every new & small business is enterpreneural or represents enterpreneurship:

Entrepreneurs create something new, s.th different, they change or transmute values.
An enterprise also does not need to be small

Thus the entrepreneur always searches for change, responds to it, and exploit it as an opportunity. Entrepreneurship could be less risky:
E.g- IBM, E.g- Marks & Spencer, E.g- P &G,E.g- 3M

Thus enterpreneaurship need to be

systematic, it needs to be managed irrespective of size, growth and risk level. It needs to be based on purposeful Innovation.
