Abstract

To Cantillon, entrepreneurship is a self-employment with an uncertain return. Cantillon focused on entrepreneur as a person; for the next 200 years, considerable research investigated the entrepreneurial personality [1]. To Schumpeter, an entrepreneur is a person who carries out new combinations, which may take the form of new products, processes, markets, organizational forms, or sources of supply [2]. It is clear that the definition of entrepreneurship is multidimensional and that different research questions draw attention to different dimensions of the construct [3]. There is a growing body of literature arguing that intentions play a very relevant role in the decision to start a new firm [4].
