Reference no: EM131450276 , Length: word count:3000

The individual report is a critical reflection of the definition of entrepreneurship, the origin of the entrepreneurial ideas and opportunities and the entrepreneurial mindset that is often, a characteristic of an entrepreneur. Your report is based on secondary and primary research.

Your first task is to provide a critical review of entrepreneurship. Your critical review is based on synthesising readings from peer-reviewed academic journals, relevant databases, industry and government reports, websites and newspaper articles.

Your second task is to analyse the start-up and development of an entrepreneurial venture. This second task requires you to identify an entrepreneur and invite him/her to participate in a short interview. The interview invites the entrepreneur to share his/her entrepreneurial experience, knowledge and motivations. The interview may be conducted in-person, by phone or by skype. The entrepreneur can operate a for profit or non-profit venture anywhere in the world.

Making use of your primary and secondary sources, critically discuss the ways in which the entrepreneur you interviewed is or is not an entrepreneur. Draw on concepts and theories to analyse the characteristics of your chosen entrepreneur and his/her entrepreneurial journey. Consider the source and motivation of his/her business venture and the types of entrepreneurship this person practices.

Your report should include at least four peer-reviewed academic journal articles to support your analysis. Be sure to use high quality journal articles from top-ranking journals, such as Journal of Business Venturing, Harvard Business Review, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, Journal of Small Business Management, Small Business Economics, etc.
