1. Who are Entrepreneurs?

- Entrepreneurs are those who take the risk of entering the business industry and provide us with
products and services for daily living. Regardless of how big or little the company is, they are the ones
who organize and run it. They have the inventive and creative mentalities since they always try to
come up with new services or products to sell and create new inventions. An entrepreneur doesn't just
run their own company on their own; it also must demonstrate creativity and show leadership.
