In 14, China's e-commerce industry grew from scratch, and Alibaba grew from an entrepreneurial team with only 18 people to the largest e-commerce ecosystem builder in China. Most of the "eighteen arhats" who started their business in those years were still in important positions, and some retired executives still had some connections with Alibaba. There are still many people who have left Ali and inherited and continued the genes of the e-commerce ecological chain?
Entrepreneurship, as a business field, is committed to understanding the opportunities for creating new things (new products, new markets, new production processes or raw materials and new methods for organizing existing technologies), how they appear and are discovered or created by specific individuals, how these people use various methods to utilize and develop them, and then produce various results.
Entrepreneurship means that a person discovers a business opportunity and takes practical actions to turn it into a specific social form, gain benefits and realize value.
Cole (1965) put forward the definition of entrepreneurship as the purposeful behavior of initiating, maintaining and developing profitable enterprises.
