7. Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of
opportunity beyond resources controlled
(Howard Stevenson)
“Pursuit”
implies
a
singular,
relentless
focus
“Opportunity”
implies
an
offering
that
is
novel
in
one
or
more
of
four
ways.
1) pioneering
a
truly
innova;ve
product;
2) devising
a
new
business
model;
3) crea;ng
a
beGer
or
cheaper
version
of
an
exis;ng
product;
or
4) targe;ng
an
exis;ng
product
to
new
sets
of
customers
“Beyond
resources
controlled”
implies
resource
constraints.

8. What
is
Technology Entrepreneurship
?
"crea;on
of
the
venture
that
capitalizes
on
technological
changes
and
that
will
have
a
significant
impact
on
a
region,
a
na;on,
or
the
world.
A
new
regula;on
or
clever
financial
restructuring
may
afford
the
entrepreneur
a
new
opportunity,
but
a
radical
or
transforming
innova;on
may
provide
the
entrepreneur
with
an
important
opportunity
to
make
a
produc;ve
and
significant
contribu;on
to
the
world
as
we
know
it."

10. In
his
book
“Experience
and
Nature”
John
Dewey
draw
aGen;on
to
primary
and
secondary
experience
and
importance
of
interac7on
between
two
of
them.
Primary
is
one
with
“minimum
of
incidental
reflec7on”
while
secondary
is
described
as
“what
is
experienced
in
consequence
of
con7nued
and
regulated
reflec7ve
inquiry...experienced
only
because
of
the
interven7on
of
systema7c
thinking”.
He
ques;oned
role
of
the
objects
and
their
rela;onship,
proposing
that
secondary
objects
“get
the
meaning
contained
in
a
whole
system
of
related
objects;
they
are
rendered
con7nuous
with
the
rest
of
nature
and
take
on
the
import
of
the
things
they
are
now
seen
to
be
con7nuous
with”.

20. Conversation about
• Exprience
– i.e. should university research units capture research results and
transform them to value for the customers
• Teaching perspectives – different frameworks,
– transmission (subject content transmission),
– apprenticeship (behavioral norms and way of working),
– development (from the learner’s point of view),
– nurturing (achievements comes from the heart, not head),
– and social reform (the impact on society)
• Challenges
– when teaching entrepreneurship to engineers.
• Assessment methods
– perform in terms of financial and business results
– how they understand the body of knowledge
– how they behave and adapt in a real business environment,
– decision-making processes?

21. In terms of
• Strucutre, process, function
• Higher level system, system in focus,
lower level system
