Entrepreneurship Development

1. An essential component of a country's social and economic development is
entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs generate wealth in the economy and society as
a result of economic and social progress. The following explains the relevance
and value of entrepreneurship:
1. Economic Development: An entrepreneurial endeavour helps a country's
economy grow. New and inventive materials, goods, technologies, and processes
are created as a result of entrepreneurship. As a result, there is an increase in
the production and distribution of products and services, which propels national
development.
Developed nations such as the United States of America, Germany, Japan, and
others credit their economic progress to the efforts of their entrepreneurs. A
country's economic progress would be hindered in the absence of the inventive
role played by entrepreneurs.

2. 2. Social Development: An essential factor in a country's social development is its
entrepreneurs. Professional and prosperous entrepreneurs understand the needs
of society's social growth and address them.
The business owners donate money to community development, health, and
education initiatives, among other social development projects. Additionally, they
come up with fresh and creative concepts to promote societal advancement.
3. Regional Development: Entrepreneurs establish enterprises not just in
developed cities but also in underdeveloped areas. Government incentives, such
monetary subsidies, tax holidays, duty exemptions, and the like, encourage
business owners to establish industries in underdeveloped areas. Such effort on
the part of entrepreneurs leads to the social and economic development of
underdeveloped areas.

3. 4. The growth of managerial skills
The biggest significance of entrepreneurship lies in the fact that it helps in
identifying and developing managerial capabilities of entrepreneurs. An
entrepreneur studies a problem, identifies its alternatives, compares the
alternatives in terms of cost and benefits implications, and finally chooses the best
alternative.
This exercise helps in sharpening the decision making skills of an entrepreneur.
Besides, these managerial capabilities are used by entrepreneurs in creating new
technologies and products in place of older technologies and products resulting in
higher performance.
5. Establishing Organisations:
Entrepreneurship results into creation of organisations when entrepreneurs
assemble and coordinate physical, human and financial resources and direct them
towards achievement of objectives through managerial skills.

4. 6. Raising living standards:
By creating productive organisations, entrepreneurship helps in making a wide
variety of goods and services available to the society which results into higher
standards of living for the people.
Possession of luxury cars, computers, mobile phones, rapid growth of shopping
malls, etc. are pointers to the rising living standards of people, and all this is due
to the efforts of entrepreneurs.
7. Capital Formation: Entrepreneurs facilitate capital formation in the country. The
entrepreneurs provide employment to the people. The employees save a part of
their income. The entrepreneurs also save a part of their profits. These savings
lead to investment. Investment in turn facilitates capital formation, i.e.,
production of capital goods, which can be used for further production of
consumer goods and services.

5. 8. Consumer Welfare: Entrepreneurship activity facilitates consumer welfare. Due
to innovative ideas, consumers can enjoy new and better types of goods and
services. Also due to employment, purchasing power of the people increases,
resulting in more demand for new and better type of goods. Therefore, the
standard of living of the society improves.
