Entrepreneurship is the process of designing, launching, and running a new business venture. The entrepreneurial opportunities include developing a business plan, hiring the human resources, acquiring financial and material resources, providing leadership and being responsible for both the venture's success or failure. In a world in which the future of jobs in the workplace is varying and in which advancements in technology are taking place at a phenomenal pace, the role of the entrepreneur has become a powerful force across the world. In addition, an increasingly volatile and global environment is driving organisations from small start-ups to large enterprises to becoming more responsive and innovative to maintain and improve global competitiveness. There is therefore a vital need to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to be able to identify, analyse and realise new business opportunities that arise from these technological innovations and advancements.
