"Entrepreneur" comes from the French word for undertaking : entreprendre . It entered the English language in the late 1400s. From it, we derive, "enterprise."

The first part of the word is "entre," to enter, also French.

An entrepreneur, therefor, is one who enters into some undertaking and it is implied that he/she is leading the way.

We need people today who will undertake great causes develop great enterprises.

Will you be one?
