Who is an Entrepreneur “Entrepreneur”, a french word literally translated means go between. Oxford Dictionary defines it as a person who organizes a commercial undertaking involving personal financial risk. “An Entrepreneur is one who organizes and operates an enterprise for personal gain. He pays current prices for the materials consumed in the business, for the use of the land, for the personal services he employs and for the capital he requires. He contributes his own initiative, skill and ingenuity in planning, organizing and administering the enterprise. He also assumes the chance of loss and gain consequent to unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstances. The net residue of the annual receipts of the enterprise after all costs have been paid, he retains for himself.”

Entrepreneurship Management
Breaking of the Circular Flow Schumpeter’s Model Profits caused by a particular innovation tends to be competed away as other imitate and adapt that. But if the entrepreneur comes out with another innovation at that time when the favourable effects of the former innovation are dying out, he will make profits again. Therefore, as long as innovation exist, profits continue to arise out of them. According to Schumpeter, Innovation is the sole cause of Profit.
