the freedom and autonomy for professional growth. An intrapreneur

findings and determine methods for staying ahead of their
competitors.
15. • Intrapreneurs become a company’s executive leaders over time. They
move the business forward and rise to the top as they understand the
business from all levels. A company should recognize and promote
successful intrapreneurs so the business can succeed and grow. When
intrapreneurs work at solving problems, they foster the growth of
other talented intrapreneurs and integrate processes for the greater
good of the entire company.

25. Reasons for Growth of Entrepreneurial Activity in
India
• 1. Industry Structure:
Performance, in terms of economic growth, is shaped by the
degree to which the prevalent industry structure efficiently utilizes
scarce resources. Technological changes in the first three quarters of
the previous century had favoured the performance of large centralized
units.
• 2. New Technologies:
This factor is related to the changes in industry structure.
Fundamental changes in nature of technological development have led
to diseconomies of scale.
Small technology-based firms are now able to challenge larger
companies still dependent on economies of scale
26. • 3. Deregulation and Privatization:
Small firms are dominant in the increase of entrepreneurial
activity in sectors that have been recently deregulated.
The collapse of communism in Eastern Europe has led to thriving
entrepreneurship in the new free-market economies
Even in the rest of the world, conservative economic policy has
given way to a brave new approach that has led to broad level
deregulation across industries.
Now companies have to deal with less licences and fewer
government controls. Many state-owned enterprises have also been
privatized leading to a greater role for the private sector in general and
entrepreneurs in particular.
27. 4. Formation of New Business Communities:
Efficiencies across markets, primarily resulting from use of new
technologies, have led to declining cost of transactions.
Business exchanges such as alibaba.com help smaller firms to be
competitive. This promotes setting up of new firms in the new-age
business communities.
5. Increasing Demand for Variety:
Increased wealth has led to increase in the demand for variety
The increasing demand for new products is of advantage to smaller
firms.
Changes in consumer tastes are a major reason for growth of
entrepreneurship.
People are inclined to products that are specifically designed to
meet their special needs.
28. 6. Services Sector:
Increase in per capita income leads to a greater share of the
services sector in the national economy.
Interestingly, even for some developing countries such as India,
services account for over half of the total GDP.
Growing importance of services in the overall economy has
paved the way for entrepreneurial activity.
7. Government Incentives and Subsidies:
In India, there are incentives being given by both the state and
central government.
Many of the incentives are often sector specific, being given by
the concerned ministry.
Similarly, entrepreneurship is being encouraged in many
countries with a variety of incentives such as tax breaks, preferred
sourcing or grants.
29. 8. Increasing Flow of Information:
Information is the lifeblood of business. Information is being
increasingly democratized. The Internet has become the chief source of
varied information.
Search engines such as Google and Yahoo enable you to access
information from trade bodies, academic or research institutions, news
networks, corporate sites, etc.
9. Easier Access to Resources:
Today, it is easier for an entrepreneur to access debt and equity
finance than ever before. Not just capital, most other factors of
production are now easily available to entrepreneurs.
With greater flow of information, it is easier to contact and to
deal with resource providers such as raw material suppliers and dealers
of capital goods.
30. 10. Entrepreneurial Education:
Many universities and institutes are nowadays offering
entrepreneurship education. A number of institutes have set up
successful entrepreneurship centres, which provide help to budding
entrepreneurs by conducting formal training and structured mentoring
programmes.
11. Return on Innovation:
Strengthening of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) has acted as a
major boost to entrepreneurs willing to take a risk on an innovation.
Now they feel the confidence in the sanctity of their IPR without feeling
the need to be backed up by a large corporation
31. 12. Entrepreneur as a Hero:
People like Dhirubhai Ambani and Narayan Murthy have become
heroes to the middle class. The common man reveres them as super-
achievers. There is something glorious in the tale of their struggle to
create new and enduring businesses that inspire a lot of other people.
13. Rising Dissatisfaction at Job:
Employers are finding it hard to retain talented employees.
People now have confidence in their abilities, which in turn prompts
them to find alternate employment.
For example, the BPO sector in India witnesses employee
turnover rates in excess of 60 per cent per annum.
32. 15. Acceptance of Ex-entrepreneurs in the Job Market:
Companies are willing to re-employ people who have been
entrepreneurs.
Their experience in creating and starting a new enterprise is highly
valued by many employers.
As a result, a potential entrepreneur perceives a lower risk as there is
always the security of a well-paid job in case the venture does not fare
well.
