,CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

ENTREPRENEURSHIP

Entrepreneurship →“Entrepreneurship refers primarily to an economic function that is carried out by
individuals, entrepreneurs, acting independently or within organizations, to
perceive and create new opportunities and to introduce their ideas into the market,
under uncertainty, by making decisions about location, product design, resource
use, institutions, and reward systems.
The entrepreneurial activity and the entrepreneurial ventures are influenced by the
socioeconomic environment and result ultimately in economic growth and human
welfare.”
→Entrepreneurship encompasses acts of organizational creation, renewal, or
innovation that occur within or outside an existing organization.
→Entrepreneurs are individuals or groups of individuals, acting independently or as
part of a corporate system, who create new organizations, or instigate renewal or
innovation within an existing organization.

• Serial entrepreneurs and portfolio entrepreneurs

,3 HORIZONS




Three Horizons model → is still very useful as a shorthand for prioritizing innovation initiatives.
And even today, some Horizon 3 disruptions do take long periods of development.
However, the trap of the Three Horizon model is not recognizing that today many
disruptions can be rapidly implemented…

,CHAPTER 2: SMES PERSPECTIVE

DEFINITION AND IMPORTANCE OF SMES

EUROPEAN DEFINITION OF SMES
Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC: official definition of SME which took effect on 1 January 2005
SME = Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the engine of the European economy.
→They are an essential source of jobs, create entrepreneurial spirit and innovation in the EU and are
thus crucial for fostering competitiveness and employment.
→The new SME definition, which entered into force on 1 January 2005, represents a major step
towards an improved business environment for SMEs and aims at promoting entrepreneurship,
investments and growth.
→This definition has been elaborated after broad consultations with the stakeholders involved which
proves that listening to SMEs is a key towards the successful implementation of the Lisbon goals
(Günter Verheugen, Member of the European Commission, Responsible for Enterprise and Industry)
→SME’s are crucial for fostering competitiveness and employment.
Listening to SME’s is key towards the successful implementation of the Lisbon goals.

EUROPEAN QUANTITATIVE DEFINITION OF SMES

# Employees (FTE) Turnover or Balance sheet

Micro < 10 <= 2 million <= 2 million

Small 10 until 49 <= 10 million <= 10 million

Medium-sized 50-249 <= 50 million <= 43 million

Qualitative characteristics of SME’s:
- More difficult to access finance
- Shares are not usually publicly traded
- Not developed management team – flat organizational structure
- More difficult to influence environment
→SME shareholder characteristics: limited number, know each other, personal lifelong relationships, shares important part of
wealth, difficult to exit, different types of owners.

US DEFINITION OF SMES
• No universally accepted definition of an SME
• Relative nature of the “small” and “medium” size in different sectors

,QUALITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF SMES
• Often no separation between ownership and management
• Overlap between private and business issues
• More difficult access to finance
• Shares of SMEs are usually not publicly traded
• No developed management team – flat organisational structure
• More flexible and faster decision making
• More difficult to influence environment


SME shareholder characteristics:
• Limited number
• Know each other
• Personal (lifelong) relationships
• Shares important part of wealth
• Difficult exit
• Different type of owners (active, passive,…)

SMALL VERSUS LARGE
Schumacher: Small is beautiful (1973)
• Reaction against adoration of large corporations
• Instead small and large
• Republished in 2011 by Vintage:
“The revolutionary ideas are as pertinent, inspirational and thought-provoking today as when they
were first published in 1973”


↔️ The Economist , March 2012:”Small is not beautiful”
• Adoration of small corporations goes against economic reality
• Large enterprises more productive, paying higher wages and taxes
• Too many small enterprises cause of (growth) crisis in Southern European countries


Too many SE cause growth crisis in southern European countries
Even if the number of companies in the EU compared to the US are similar in percentage, the difference is made at the number of
employees: in US we can see a big difference in the people hire in large enterprises.
Which from the Economist perspective it is an important taxes and revenue source for the economy.
Risk of failure decreases if a company gets larger. Be careful not to confuse exit with failure.

IMPORTANCE OF SMES

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF FAILURE AMONG ESTABLISHED SMES?
Distinction between three factors:
1. Internal: under the control of management: lack of strategic management
2. External: beyond management control: customers’ default of payment
3. Personal: characteristics of the business leader/owner: financial, conflict, leadership style,…


Causes of failure according to liquidators:
• Internal: lack of financial and strategic management
Self-employed business people are good in their profession, but they usually know little or anything about the administrative part behind their business.
In addition, law and regulations are constantly changing and because they don’t have the time and knowledge for it, they depend on others.
For that reason they risk that others (accountants, bankers, …) will make the wrong choices for them or that they get in contact with the wrong people

• External: direct competition of large firms
• Personal: divorce and conflict between business partners
