1) In the restaurant industry, menu changes or the emergence
of new restaurants and chains represent continuous
innovation
2) In the television industry, continuous innovation occurred
for years with the steady, gradational enhancements in, and
improvements in pricing and programming for, standard

Entrepreneurship is to a great extent controlled by the environment.
The entrepreneurial environment is made up of several elements like-
– Economic,
– Non-Economic
The desire to earn money is no doubt an important motivating force.
But entrepreneurs are motivated not only by profit all the time. Let
us see few factors that inspire entrepreneurs toward
entrepreneurship.

• Capital
– Availability of capital facilitates the entrepreneur to bring together the land of one, machine of
another and raw material of yet another to combine them to produce goods.
• Labour
– The quality, rather quantity of labour is also a factor which influences the emergence of
entrepreneurship.
• Raw Materials
March 20, 2014 Dr. Giri Y. L. 103
• Raw Materials
– In absence of raw materials, neither any enterprise can be established nor can an entrepreneur
be emerged. In some cases, technological innovations can compensate for raw material
inadequacies.
• Market
– Monopoly in a particular product in a market becomes more influential for entrepreneurship
than a competitive market.
