Abstract

This chapter highlights the role of entrepreneurship in the making of global business. It argues that global business needs to be seen as a self-contained system operating on the surface of planet earth. The evolution of this system has been driven by many forces, one of which is human enterprise. Over the centuries human enterprise has generated new technologies and products, and financed major investments, which collectively have transformed the global business system. Acknowledgements: I am grateful to Teresa da Silva Lopes and Heidi Tworek for valuable comments on an earlier draft of this chapter.
