Motivating young brains to explore and follow entrepreneurial pursuits by educating them about its challenges, opportunities, risks and rewards is the prime objective of this introductory text. In the course of writing the present book, special care has been taken to elaborate on a number of ideas, theories and concepts so as to help readers explore and understand various aspects and dimensions of entrepreneurship. Wherever needed, the contents are supplemented with suitable examples, cases and caselets in order to make reading more interesting and relevant.
