Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurship, & Innovation
According to Kuratko (2009), today’s younger generation is referred to as Generation X because they feel crossed out of traditional opportunities. This generation of the twenty-first century may also be referred to as Generation E, because, according to Kuratko, they are becoming “the most entrepreneurial generation since the Industrial Revolution” (p. 32). One-third of new entrepreneurs are under the age of 30, and millions of individuals 35 years and younger are actively trying to start their own businesses.
