Concept of Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is the ability and readiness to develop, organize and run a business
enterprise, along with any of its uncertainties in order to make a profit. The most prominent
example of entrepreneurship is the starting of new businesses.
What Is Entrepreneurship
In economics, entrepreneurship connected with land, labour, natural resources and capital
can generate a profit. The entrepreneurial vision is defined by discovery and risk-taking and
is an indispensable part of a nation’s capacity to succeed in an ever-changing and more
competitive global marketplace.
Meaning of Entrepreneur
The entrepreneur is defined as someone who has the ability and desire to establish,
administer and succeed in a startup venture along with risk entitled to it, to make profits. The
best example of entrepreneurship is the starting of a new business venture. The
entrepreneurs are often known as a source of new ideas or innovators, and bring new ideas
in the market by replacing old with a new invention.
It can be classified into small or home business to multinational companies. In economics, the
profits that an entrepreneur makes is with a combination of land, natural resources, labour
and capital.
In a nutshell, anyone who has the will and determination to start a new company and deals
with all the risks that go with it can become an Entrepreneur.
What are the 4 Types of Entrepreneurship?
It is classified into the following types:
Small Business EntrepreneurshipThese businesses are a hairdresser, grocery store, travel agent, consultant, carpenter,
plumber, electrician, etc. These people run or own their own business and hire family
members or local employee. For them, the profit would be able to feed their family and not
making 100 million business or taking over an industry. They fund their business by taking
small business loans or loans from friends and family.
Scalable Startup EntrepreneurshipThis start-up entrepreneur starts a business knowing that their vision can change the world.
They attract investors who think and encourage people who think out of the box. The research
focuses on a scalable business and experimental models, so, they hire the best and the
brightest employees. They require more venture capital to fuel and back their project or
business.
Large Company EntrepreneurshipThese huge companies have defined life-cycle. Most of these companies grow and sustain by
offering new and innovative products that revolve around their main products. The change in
technology, customer preferences, new competition, etc., build pressure for large companies
to create an innovative product and sell it to the new set of customers in the new market. To
cope with the rapid technological changes, the existing organisations either buy innovation
enterprises or attempt to construct the product internally.

Dependent origination as a natural governing lawMurray Hunter
The following paper explains the concept of dependent origination and its place in Buddhist Dharma
(teaching).Dependent origination is then described as a heuristic and discussed in relation to James Lovelock’s
GAIA hypothesis, the solar system, the economic system, the social environment, event phenomena and
entrepreneurial opportunity, consciousness and self concept, and the ethical standpoint.
When there is this, that is
With the arising of this, that arises
When this is not, neither is that
With the cessation of this, that ceases

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

49. Attribute Small Business Entrepreneurial Business Risk Risk is to be avoided by undertaking a business activity that is already proven to be successful. Therefore business models will not be novel. Ideas and opportunities are always risks. Every village and every person is unique and will have different ideas that suit them. Need to Achieve A small business is totally orientated towards a financial return. Financial return may not be the prime motivator. Individuals and groups may want to produce something they like and have pride in. Creativity An enterprise will fit into a proven model so not much creativity is needed. The enterprise from the first idea may be driven by many types of creativity, and creativity itself may be a source of satisfaction. Flexibility A small business is a business operated through a disciplined routine in most cases. Individuals and groups may be looking for maximum flexibility in an enterprise, so it can fit in with their life, rather than they have to fit in with the small business. Change Small businesses rely on little environmental change for success. Change in the environment may suit individuals and groups as they don’t want to get locked into routine, and change prototes their creativity. Independence Financial independence is the objective. We are already independent and don’t want a business to lock us into a strict routine. Foresight A daily, weekly, monthly or seasonal cycle that is predictable. We may have to keep coming up with new things to keep the enterprise going. Initiative There are very tight resources to have much initiative. We rely on initiative to keep going, and all initiatives are considered. Control of destiny The future is controlled by sales in the marketplace. The future is in our hands of what we want to be. Commitment Total commitment. I want to be committed on my terms. Leadership I am the leader and do all tasks. Leadership is defined by tasks.

89. that there “is also the tendency for Asian countries, including Malaysia, to deal with the issue of values in development by Importing many technologies and systems wholesale from abroad without going through the process of mental transformation necessary to master them fully. Although Malaysia is going through rapid transformation, our growth is one without development in the context of knowledge contribution to science, engineering and technology. As long as we are consumers and operators of sophisticated techniques, plants and technologies imported wholesale from abroad, we are to a certain extent undergoing a technology-less form of industrialization. This transformation of values and attitudes is a key issue in the nation’s development agenda” [i] . [i] Asma, A., Going Glocal: Cultural Dimensions in Malaysian Management, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Institute of Management, 1995, P. 179.
95. Element Existence Values Most spiritual doctrines and religions have very positive values towards enterprise, independence and empowerment. These have to be brought to the surface of some cultures or sub-cultures, i.e., refocusing on the functional rather than the dysfunctional aspects. Confidence Confidence is a group phenomena and can be improved through engagement of group processes to achieve new ways of seeing. Ideas The skills of ideation can be developed through access to communications technology and developing both partial and whole brain thinking. Potential Opportunities By linking ideas to markets, modes of entry, resources and skill needs, potential opportunities can be constructed. Product Focus on themes rather than marketing mixes, look for ways to incorporate consumer fears, existence, acceptance, hopes and dreams in the product (spiritual materialism) Markets Markets exist in various forms and segmentations with much more fragmentation, coupled with the ability to communicate are potentially accessible to village communities. Identify aspirations of consumers, connect products and channels to these aspirations. Technology Technology is a way of how to make and do things. Product manufacture can be undertaken in scaled down models to suit decentralization, small unit output and flexibility. The focus is on how to do things in more cost effective ways, within the existing cultural socio-organisational setting.
96. Competitive Advantage In many FMCG markets competitive advantage has more to do with theme, schema and branding, through selected channels of distribution, than economies of scale. The product is a fulfiller of dreams. Skills Not all the skills taught at formal educational institutions are needed to start an enterprise. In this regard its only necessary to provide people with what they need from the point of view of business, product development and production. There is a need for the “village university” to focus on showing people how to see, learn how to do and connect to consumers. Agency/Networks Through modern communications technology (internet & travel) it is now possible to contact and interact with very wide groups of people, including agencies of interest, customers, grant agencies and sourcing know-how. Logistics Logistics have advanced in recent years and can be coupled together such as the internet and EMS to create direct logistic systems between producers and consumers. Resources We have to learn to use what we have and utilize these limited resources innovatively. There are many methods of alternative funding that can be explored and set up, i.e., Zakat, unit trusts, closed equity markets, etc. Organisation New forms need to be generated from often discarded forms such as cooperatives. Cooperatives can exist at both production and market levels. People can form their own companies under umbrellas, organizations should be focused on linking the young with their older generation. Coalitions can be sort with larger organizations in developed countries for branding and market purposes. Organisations have to fit with existing social schema and develop from there, as people are ready.
