Enterprising Tendency is one of the most important parts of an Entrepreneurship. The aim of the paper is to study tendency towards entrepreneurial characteristics of entrepreneurs. This paper gives the comparative study of an Enterprising Tendency with the help of General Enterprising Tendency Test (GETT) and four cases in Gujarat, India. The GETT was conducted on four lead entrepreneurs of the select cases. The result of the same are listed in the paper. The tendency towards characteristics of the entrepreneurs is also judged subjectively through analysis of the cases. Hence, both objective and subjective analysis are matched in the paper. The results show that there is considerable matching between both. This paper would be useful to understand importance and behavior of tendency towards entrepreneurial characteristics which are required to be a successful entrepreneur.

Women entrepreneurship is synonymous with women empowerment. Parallel to the male counterparts, female entrepreneurs are catalytic in job creation, innovation and more than tangible contribution to the GNP of the country. An economy thrives when women get a level playing field as men. Innovation works as a catalyst or an instrument for Entrepreneurship. Indian Women, despite all the social hurdles stand tall from the rest of the crowd and are applauded for their achievements in their respective field. The transformation of social fabric of the Indian society, in terms of increased educational status of women and varied aspirations for better living, necessitated a change in the life style of Indian women. This paper endeavors to explore studies related to Women Entrepreneurship and Innovation in India. Few examples from Gujarat, India have been taken to understand the study in a better way.

Various Government and Non Government agencies are doing lot of work to promote Entrepreneurship. Particularly Government of India is
doing great work to promote Techno Entrepreneurship by providing support through various agencies under the umbrella of Department of Science and Technology (DST). Even it has
established National Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Development Board under DST.
In this paper we will try to give information and study, mainly exploratory, related to these
support activities to convert Techno-innovation to Techno Entrepreneurship by keeping main
focus on Technology Business Incubation approach in India. Here we are trying to give
conceptual model to establish relationship between Techno Innovation and Techno
Entrepreneurship. And this will be substantiated by various Techno Innovation and Techno
Entrepreneurship illustrations of real life. Here, the major focus is given to Technology Busin ess
Incubation approach to support and create Techno Entrepreneurship from Techno-innovation.
This paper will show a research gap, in the context of India, in the area of Techno -
entrepreneurship through Technology Business Incubation. This can be further useful for
research in broader sense in future in this context. This paper also give ideas about which kind of
research is possible in the context India in this area.

Global warming and many environmental issues. There is a strong need to do business by
using green technology to save the world. Here, in this paper, authors have presented a
case study of one company of India – Aura Herbal Textiles Limited which has developed
Herbal Dyeing process instead of normal chemical dyeing process for cloths to create
eco-friendly environment. The company has also got the patent on this technology. The
case was written mainly from entrepreneurship point of view with emphasis on green
technology – Herbal Dyeing & Organic Textiles also. This case study shows how
Technology Business Incubator, CIIE – IIM Ahmedabad (Centre for Innovation,
Incubation and Entrepreneurship) has played a role in helping this technology innovation
to create business out of that. Some business strategy aspects are also given in the case
study. So, this case study also gives the aspect of Techno-preneurship (Technology
Entrepreneurship).
