Entrepreneurship refers to the concept of developing and managing commercial projects in order

The title of entrepreneur or businessman is given to the person who establishes a new business
project by himself and bears all the risks and consequences of this work, as he is seen as
innovative, creative, and a source of renewable ideas, modern products and services; It plays an
important role in any economy by using the necessary and necessary skills to anticipate market
needs and provide good and innovative ideas.
Entrepreneurship is classified into 4 types as follows:
Small Entrepreneurship: This type of entrepreneurship is represented by small stores; Like
hairdressing, grocery, carpentry, plumbing, etc., people run their own business or hire a family
member or local employees, and their earnings usually make them able to feed their families and
provide for their basic needs.
Scalable Entrepreneurship: In this type of entrepreneurship, the entrepreneur begins to create a
business that he realizes that he can bring about societal change through it. He attracts and
attracts investors who think outside the box, focuses on the search for measurable commercial
and experimental activities, and hires the best and most creative employees. .
Entrepreneurship of large companies: In this type of leadership, large companies continue to
introduce and modify their main products, as advances in technology, customer preferences, and
new competition increase pressure on these companies to produce innovative products and offer
them for sale to a new group of customers in new and different markets .
Social Entrepreneurship: This type of entrepreneurship focuses on producing products and
providing services that solve societal problems and cover the needs of society without achieving
any financial profits.
The endeavors of commercial projects and entrepreneurship have had a wide impact on
economic conditions, the business environment, and job creation in various countries. Here are
some points that illustrate the importance of entrepreneurship:
Economic progress and advancement: Commercial projects are what drive the wheel of
economic development and contribute significantly to the national income.

CITIE is resource for city leadership that helps policymakers in cities create the best possible environment for innovation and entrepreneurship
It was developed by combining extensive consultation with city government leaders, policy experts, venture capitalists and entrepreneurs with detailed research into the state of the art in policy from cities around the world.
On the basis of this research, we identified that the approach a city government takes to innovation and entrepreneurship can be characterised by the answers to three questions:
1, How open is the city to new ideas and businesses? High-performing cities support insurgent businesses by ensuring that regulations, procurement rules and advocacy efforts work in their favour.
2. How does the city optimise the city’s infrastructure for high-growth SMEs? High-performing cities invest in their transport and digital infrastructure, and support access to inputs such as talent and capital that high-growth businesses need to thrive.
3. How does the city build innovation into its own activities? High-performing cities lead by example, by taking a clear view on how they want to support innovation, and then using data and engaging with citizens to do so.
This introduction to Nesta’s work on digital democracy was shared with the Kirklees Democracy Commission as part of our evidence gathering in September 2016.
