He plays a pivotal role not only in the development of an industrial sector of a country but also in the development of product and service sector. Entrepreneurs are like gamblers, and like any gambler, their chances of winning increase if they have the right cards. The role of entrepreneurship in economic development varies from economy to economy depending upon its material resources, industrial climate and the responsiveness of the political system to the entrepreneurial function. Path breaking offerings by entrepreneurs, in the form of new goods & services, result in new employment, which can produce a cascading effect or virtuous circle in the economy. If we understand the benefits and drawbacks, a balanced approach to nurturing entrepreneurship will result in a positive impact on the economy and society.
