Mr. Ir. Dwi Larso, M.SIE., Ph.D. said that in defining entrepreneurship, you can go through 3 main points, the first point of entrepreneurship is opportunity, everyone has the opportunity and the opportunity is always there, if there is no opportunity, everyone is creative enough to create new opportunities that can be exploited. The second point is real, he said that from that opportunity we must make it a real action, and not just a mere word. The third point is added value, so that what we do is expected to provide benefits for many people. Entrepreneurship is the ability to understand the market, where the market contains customers. So as an entrepreneur we must maintain good relations with customers and understand what the customer wants and understand where the customer shift is going. Business is not only born, but also developed to create sustainability.
