Entrepreneurship: from education to innovation
Journal Title: Manager Journal - Year 2017, Vol 26, Issue
Abstract
There are a lot of factors, both internal and external (social, financial, technological, political, legislative, demographic) that influence the activity of a company. Its adaptability and flexibility are decisively influenced by the entrepreneur’s education, but also by the group he leads and by the innovative spirit that exists at the organizational level. The local and global information flows provide support for the development of businesses that once seemed impossible. The entrepreneur has the capacity to take major risks, to identify opportunities and to ensure the company’s sustainability. The paper aims at presenting some aspects regarding the current level of entrepreneurship and the way in which education and innovation influence it.
