ADATO, STEVEN F. BELO, VERONICA B. GALLARDO, JONATHAN S. MENDIOLA, GIGS SYMON P. REDECIO, JEREMIAH REY WHAT IS ENTREPRENEURSHIP?
• Entrepreneurship is the capacity and
willingness to develop, organize and manage a business venture along with any of its risks to make a profit.
• Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of
opportunity beyond resources controlled. WHAT IS ENTREPRENEURSHIP? • Entrepreneurship is one of the resources economists categorized as integral to production, the other three being land/natural resources, labor and capital.
• An entrepreneur combines the first three of these to
manufacture goods or provides services. They typically create a business plan, hire labor, acquire resources and financing, and provide leadership and management to the business. WHAT MAKES AN ENTREPRENEUR?
• An entrepreneur is an individual who
creates a new business, bearing most of the risks and enjoying most of the rewards. The entrepreneur is commonly seen as an innovator , a source of new ideas, goods, services, and business/ or procedures. WHAT MAKES AN ENTREPRENEUR?
• They dream big.
• They have a clear vision of what they want to achieve. • They have a passion for a positive change. • They engage in calculated risk taking. • They are results- driven. TYPES OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP • SMALL BUSINESS ENTREPRENEURSHIP They are anyone who runs his/ her business. They hire local employees or family. Most are barely profitable. Their definition of success is to feed the family and make a profit, not to take over an industry or build a $100 million business. As they can’t provide the scale to attract venture capital, they fund their businesses via friends, family or small business loans. TYPES OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP • SCALABLE STARTUP ENTREPRENEURSHIP These entrepreneurs start a company knowing from day one that their vision could change the world. They attract investment from equally crazy financial investors – venture capitalists. They hire the best and the brightest. Their job is to search for a repeatable and scalable business model. TYPES OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP • LARGE COMPANY ENTREPRENEURSHIP Large companies have finite life cycles. Most grow through sustaining innovation, offering new products that are variants around their core products. Changes in customer tastes, new technologies, legislation, new competitors etc. can create pressure for more disruptive innovation – requiring large companies to create entirely new products sold into new customers in new markets. TYPES OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP • SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP Social entrepreneurs are innovators who focus on creating products and services that solve social needs and problems. But unlike scalable startups their goal is to make the world a better place, not to take market share or to create wealth for the founders. They may be nonprofit, for-profit or hybrid.

ENGINEERING X ENTREPRENEURSHIP • At present, many engineering students have failed to start a business due to the lack of good entrepreneurial ability and quality. The main crux is that colleges and universities only pay attention to the professional knowledge and skills for the cultivation of engineering students, but ignore the entrepreneurship education. • At present, scholars in our country have done a lot of research on entrepreneurship education, but seldom integrate the research of entrepreneurship education into the engineering talents training program. • In general, what would you say are an engineer's weaknesses when it comes to being an entrepreneur? Two highly valued strengths of engineers can actually become weaknesses; intelligence and precision. • How is the field of engineering changing regarding entrepreneurship? The field of engineering is becoming more multidisciplinary. • Does being entrepreneurial make you a better engineer? Key aspects to being entrepreneurial are vision and opportunity. Being entrepreneurial allows an engineer to be more strategic in a project or in an organization. Although an entrepreneur is generally defined as an individual, a group or an organization can also be entrepreneurial. This is also a good time to be an entrepreneur. QUIZ 1.
