Abstract

When asked to define what is economics, quite frequently economists respond that economics is whatever economists do. In an analogous way, if one were asked to define what is entrepreneurship, one might reasonably be expected to respond that entrepreneurship is whatever entrepreneurs do. Hence, to understand entrepreneurship, a convenient approach is to focus on the role(s) of entrepreneurs in the economy.
