The Nature & Development of Entrepreneurships it is the term entrepreneur comes from the French and literally

translated means between-taker or go-between. One early example of a go-between is Marco Polo, who
attempted to establish trade route to the Far East. As was the custom, he signed a contract with a money
person (forerunner of todays capitalist to sell his goods. In this time a common contract involved a loan to the
travelling traders at a 25.5 percent rate, including insurance. While the capitalist was a passive risk-bearer, the
travelling traders took on an active role trading, including all the physical and emotional risks. The successful
completion of a journey by the travelling traders, the capitalist took most of the profit (up to 75 percent), while
entrepreneur merchant settled for the remaining 25 percent. In the middle ages, the term entrepreneur was used
to describe both an actor an a person managing large production projects. In the case of a large production
project, the person would not take any risk but would merely manage the project using the resources provided.
A typical entrepreneur in the Middle Ages was the cleric the person in charges of great architectural works such
as castles and fortifications, public buildings or abbeys and cathedrals. The concepts of risk in the notion of
entrepreneurship developed in the 17
th
century, with an entrepreneur being viewed as a person who entered in
the contractual arrangement with the government to perform a service or supply stipulated products. Since the
contract price was fixed, any resulting profit or losses reflected the efforts of the entrepreneurs. One
entrepreneur in this period was John Law, a Frenchman, who was allowed to establish a royal bank, which
eventually evolved into an exclusive franchise to form a trading company in the New World the Mississippi
Company. Unfortunately, this monopoly on French trade led to Laws downfall when he attempted to push its
stock price higher than the value of the companys assets: this eventually led to the collapse of the company.
Finally in the 18
th
century the person with capital was differentiated from one needing capital. The
entrepreneurial role was distinguished from capital providing role. The latter role means present day venture
capitalist. One reason that effect differentiation was industrialization occurring throughout world. Now days the
intention of developed is to changing world. The concepts of innovation and newness an integral part of
entrepreneurships is at the heart of this definition. Indeed, innovation, the act of introducing something news and

distribution. This ability to innovate is an instinct that distinguished human being from other creatures. The
instinct can be observed throughout history, from Egyptians who designed and build great pyramids from stone
block weighing many tons each to the Apollo lunar module to laser beams. While the tools have changed with
advances in science and technology, the ability to innovate has been present in every civilization. For Robert
Hirisch nature & development of entrepreneur is the proses of creating something different value by devoting the
necessary time and effort, assuming the accompanying financial, psychological, and social risks, and receiving
the resulting rewards of monetary and personal satisfaction. The function of entrepreneur is to reform or
revolutionize the pattern of production by exploiting an intention and more generally untried technologies
possibility for producing new commodity or producing the old one in the new ways, opening new sources of
supply materials to the new outlet for product by reorganizing the new industry. The definition of entrepreneur
has evolved over time as the world economic structure has changed and become more complex. From the
beginning in the Middle Ages where it was used in relations to specific occupations, the entrepreneur has been
refined and broadened include the concepts related to the person rather than occupations. Risk taking,
innovation and creation of wealth are example the criteria had been developed as the new business creation
has evolved. In this concepts, entrepreneur is defined the process creating something new that different with the
valve by devoting the necessary time and effort that accompanying financial, psychic, and social risks and
receiving the result rewards of monetary and personal satisfaction. The study of entrepreneurships has reason
not because it help entrepreneur better fulfill personal need because of economic function of new journey. Lastly
