Abstract

This study attempts to discover the meaning of the word entrepreneur from a student’s perspective. In pursuit of the word entrepreneur throughout the literature, it has been revealed that an entrepreneur is a person who conceives an idea, creates a path to success, does whatever it takes to succeed, and tries to dominate the market. This is an ongoing activity that requires a mindset, compatibility, and persistence to fulfill people’s needs and attain calculative financial gains by considering risk factors. He is passionate and can move from one industry to another, depending on his knowledge, experience, and specialization. In view of our findings, an entrepreneur is an individual who arranges his business solely and invests money and resources to achieve profit and growth in the market. Six fundamental parts have been proposed for incorporation into the meaning of a businessman: advancement, opportunity acknowledgment, risk administration, activity, utilization of assets, and esteem.
