CONCEPTS OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT Entrepreneurship is a dynamic process of vision,
Entrepreneurship involves decision making, change, and creation. It requires an application of
innovation, implementation, forecasting of the energy and passion towards the creation and
implementation of new ideas and creative solutions.
Essential ingredients include the willingness to take
calculated risks- in terms of time, equity, or career;
the ability to formulate an effective venture team;
the creative skill to marshal needed resources; the
fundamental skills of building a solid business plan;
and, finally, the vision to recognize opportunity
where others see chaos, contradiction, and
confusion.

6 CONCEPTS IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP
The first concept that should be understood is the
concept of business. Everything an entrepreneur
does revolve around the concept of business. As
such one should know what business is at its most
fundamental level.

CONCEPT 1:
Business is the activity of making, buying, selling
or supplying goods or services for money. In other
words, a business is a commercial organization such
as a company, shop/store or factory.  One of the
primary goals of business is to make money.

Businesses that don’t make money don’t stay


around for very long. Another concept for making
money in business is called revenue. A more
detailed description of the concept of revenue is:

CONCEPT 2:
Revenue is the amount of money that is brought
into a company by its business activities. Revenue
is calculated by multiplying the price at which
goods or services are sold by the number of units or
amount sold.

Equally important to the concept of revenue is the


concept of profits. Profits are typically main goal of
every business aside from fulfilling a need or
problem that a customer has. A formal definition for
the word is below.
