, Week 1, lecture 1: Introduction to entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurs create economic and social value through change.
Disruptive innovation: first underperforms and later disrupts the market because it is a better product.
Old incumbents didn’t see them as a threat.
The business model canvas
Useful because it can depict your business in an extremely precise and comprehensive manner, but also
facilitates discussions about the changes in the business model.
1. Gives you an overview of your company.
2. To see what needs to be done.
A common mistake: businesses often don’t have an overview.
Main take-aways
1. An entrepreneur can be defined in many ways depending on the context and on the message, we
want to deliver.
2. While Schumpeter was focusing on the role of individuals, scholars have been recognizing the
importance of teams and networks.
3. Entrepreneurs create value through creative destruction which refers to a process.
4. Where the entrepreneur disrupts the existing practices and industry structure through the
recombination of knowledge and resources.
5. Whereas many people think about entrepreneurs as cool, young hipsters and geniuses with a
ground-breaking idea, the reality is that they are more often experienced, educated and older
people often working for large enterprises.
6. The first plan almost never succeeds. Successful entrepreneurs learn from their failures and iterate
in contrast with their unsuccessful counterparts. This is the method of lean start-ups.
