1. Why we need an entrepreneur?
    answer: A new government and another set of policy initiatives to foster enterprise and entrepreneurship. The clear implication is that the UK needs more entrepreneurs, and if not, why change?
Inevitably this leads to a series of questions which attempt to uncover the causes of a lack of enterprise; most of these focus on the availability of capital. I must confess that I have no precise idea where the UK ranks in a world league of entrepreneurial activity, but I am a believer in the notion that entrepreneurs are critically important to the economic well-being of the UK, and in this sense you can never have too many.

2. Differentiate; Entrepreneur, Technopreneur, Intrapreneur, Innovator,manager.

Strategic directions or decision-making processes are becoming more demanding and complex. This requires universities, and in site professional development programs and training to produce strategic thinkers who will have skills to succeed in a rapidly changing global environment.
    Intrapreneur refers to employee initiatives in organizations to undertake something new, without being asked to do so.Hence, the intrapreneur focuses on innovation and creativity, and transforms an idea into a profitable venture, while operating within the organizational environment. Thus, intrapreneurs are Inside entrepreneurs who follow the goal of the organization. Intrapreneurship is an example of motivation through job design, either formally or informally.
