Bioentrepreneurship

Editor's Notes

  • #4 is “one who organizes, manages, and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise.” In other words, the entrepreneur is the owner and manager of the business risks. This duplicity of roles requires an individual who understands both risks.
  • #12 Resiliency the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. Learn. Successful entrepreneurs realize they don’t know everything and the market is constantly changing. They stay up to date on new systems, technology, and industry trends.
  • #18 To inculcate is to instill or impress an idea on someone, so inculcation is the process of instilling or impressing ideas. A lot of teaching is a form of inculcation: teachers repeat information to students, hoping it will sink in.
