Entrepreneurial Creativity Defined "Entrepreneur is a person who habitually creates an innovates to build something of recognized value around perceived opportunities.1 In this definition of the Entrepreneur, "creates" means starting from scratch and bringing into being something that was not there before. A Continuous Innovative Activity "Creativity is a continuous activity for the entrepreneur, always seeing new ways of doing things with little concern for how difficult they might be or whether the resources are available. But the creativity in the entrepreneur is combine with the ability to innovate, to take the idea and make it work in practice. This seeing something through to the end and not being satisfied until all is accomplished is a central motivation for the entrepreneur. Indeed once the project is accomplished the entrepreneur seeks another 'mountain to climb' because for him or her creativity and innovation are habitual, something that he or she just has to keep on doing."1 This is why entrepreneurs disturb markets, 'thrive on chaos', and can challenge large established businesses.
