This second edition gives practical guidelines on how to develop business ideas and establish an enterprise. Drawing on their personal experience as entrepreneurs, business advisors and subject specialists, the authors look at: providing a comprehensive introduction to the world of business and its most important role player -- the entrepreneur; basic business concepts, in order to ensure understanding of the business environment and business in general; what successful entrepreneurs do and what contributes to successful entrepreneurship; the steps in the entrepreneurial process -- the feasibility study, the viability assessment and the development of a business plan; and some of the most important and essential business management functions that entrepreneurs have to address, such as marketing, finance, operations, human resources and purchasing, as these are all relevant to a start-up or new business. Using a fun and accessible approach the authors guide the reader to be positive yet critical, creative yet practical in their search for business ideas, and ultimately to thoroughly research business ideas to ensure profitability.

Drawing on their own creativity, energy, and personal experience, entrepreneurs identify and seek to fill needs not currently being met by existing products or services. By doing so, they create financial/and or social value. This text examines all phases of the entrepreneurial process: ideas for something new and better than what currently exists, determining whether these ideas suggest viable business opportunities, obtaining needed financial and human resources, securing intellectual property protection, launching the new venture, developing strategies for gaining and maintaining competitive advantage, and building a customer base. In discussing these and other topics, the text draws on research findings that help identify variables that play a role in entrepreneurs’ effective performance of these tasks, and so–ultimately–in their success.
