Overview of Entrepreneur and Entrepreneurship Entrepreneur ‘An entrepreneur is an individual who creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and enjoying most of the rewards. The process of setting up a business is known as entrepreneurship. The entrepreneur is commonly seen as an innovator, a source of new ideas, goods, services, and business/or procedures. Entrepreneurs play a key role in any economy, using the skills and initiative necessary to anticipate needs and bring good new ideas to market. Entrepreneurship that proves to be successful in taking on the risks of creating a startup is rewarded with profits, fame, and continued growth opportunities. Entrepreneurship that fails results in losses and less prevalence in the markets for those involved. > Apperson who undertakes the risk of starting a new business venture is called an entrepreneur. > An entrepreneur creates a firm to realize their idea, known as entrepreneurship, which aggregates capital and labor in order to produce goods or services for profit. > Entrepreneurship is highly risky but also can be highly rewarding, as it serves to generate economic wealth, growth, and innovation. > The way entrepreneurs file and pay taxes will depend on how the business is set up in terms of structure. Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurship is the ability and readiness to develop, organize and run a business enterprise, along with any of its uncertainties in order to make a profit, The more modern entrepreneurship definition is also about transforming the world by solving big problems like bringing about social change or creating an innovative product that challenges the status quo of how we live our lives daily.

These individuals usually invest their own money ns succeed if their business turns a profit, which they live off. They don't have outside investors and will only take a loan if it helps continue the business. 2.Scalable Business These are companies that start with a unique idea; think Silicon Valley. The hopes are to innovate with a unique product or service and continue growing the company, continuously scaling up as time moves on. These types of companies often require investors and large amounts of capital to grow their idea and reach multiple markets. 3.Large-Company Large company entrepreneurship is a new business division created within an existing company. The existing company may be well placed to branch out into other sectors, or it may be well placed to become involved in new technology. CEOs of these companies either foresee a new market for the company or individuals within the company generate ideas that they bring to senior management to start the process. 4.Social Entrepreneurship The goal of social entrepreneurship is to create a benefit to society and humankind. They focus on helping communities or the environment through their products and services. They are not driven by profits but rather by helping the world around them.

Scanned By Camera Scanner Business The term business refers to an organization or enterprising entity engaged in commercial, industrial, or professional activities. The purpose of a business is to organize some sort of economic production (of goods or services). Businesses can be for-profit entities or non-profit organizations fulfilling a charitable mission or furthering a social cause. Businesses range in scale and scope from sole proprietorships to large, international corporations. Business also refers to the efforts and activities undertaken by individuals to produce and sell goods and services for profit. > A business is defined as an organization or enterprising entity engaged in commercial, industrial, or professional activities. > Businesses can be for-profit entities or non-profit organizations. > Business types range from limited liability companies to sole proprietorships, corporations, and partnerships. > Some businesses run as small operations in a single industry while others are large operations that spread across many industries around the world. > Apple and Walmart are two examples of well-known, successful businesses. ‘Synopsis of types and forms of enterprise Enterprise refers to a for-profit business started and run by an entrepreneur. And we will often say that people running such businesses are enterprising. An enterprise is a profit- oriented business or company. Some may strike a balance between profit, social and environmental, as social enterprises do. 1.Sole proprietorship: A sole proprietorship refers to a business structure owned and operated by an individual. It does not result in a separate entity. So, the assets and liabilities of the business are entirely in your hands as the owner. You are fully responsible for the operation and success of the business. You have unlimited liability for any business risks. So, you may have to sell personal assets to pay off company debt. But, if your business is successful, the profit of the business is entirely yours. You do not have to share it with others as ina partnership or only get a portion (dividends) as in a limited company. Scanned By Camera Scanner 2.Partnership: The ownership of the business is under two or more parties (partners). They work together to form and run a business. Each partner contributes differently depending on the agreement. Unlike sole proprietorships, partnerships _allow for the pooling of greater resources and capabilities. Each partner can bring certain resources, including capital and expertise, to lead the business to success. In addition, business risk is also spread among partners. Likewise, profits must also be shared between them, the proportion depending on the partnership deed. 3.Private limited company: A private limited company implies a separate business organization from the owners (shareholders). It is an incorporated business, unlike sole proprietorships and partnerships. The owner assumes limited liability and is not personally liable for the financial and legal obligations of the business. So, when businesses have difficulty paying debts, they don't have to pay off using their personal money. And, if the company closes, they only lose some of the money they invested in the company. The owner does not operate the business directly. Instead, they appoint a board of directors to run the business, expecting the directors to act in their best interests. 4.Public limited company: A public limited company has similar characteristics to a private limited company. The difference between the two lies only in whether the company’s shares are available to the public for trading or not, Public limited companies list their shares on the stock exchange. So, people can trade it. In contrast, private limited companies do not. Then, shareholders in a public limited company have the potential to get dividends and capital gains. When the company's stock price rises, they can sell it and realize a profit. Next, public limited companies are usually more transparent because they are bound by regulations. For example, they must regularly publish their financial statements. Scanned By Camera Scanner rbudes to be 99 entrepreneur No entrepreneur Succeeds In every business Venture.
