An entrepreneur is often described as a starter, initiator, a challenger and a driver. Someone that creates something new, an initiative, a business or a company. He or she is the beginning - and sometimes the end of a venture, project or activity. An entrepreneur sees an opportunity which others do not fully recognise, to meet an unsatisfied demand or to radically improve the performance of an existing business.
