Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Context, BrazilAbstract
The themes entrepreneurship and innovation has been much discussed today, both in academic, business and political means. And although they are apparently different concepts, it is suggested that there is a relationship between them. So, in an attempt to verify the existence of this association, this study conducted a qualitative exploratory study, which was used for quantitative data. The survey results show that the terms entrepreneurship and innovation, although some close, express different concepts. Entrepreneurship consists of the process by which individuals turn ideas into opportunities in order to generate wealth. Innovation, in turn, is the process by which new products and services or processes are implemented; Also aims at the continuity of the business and the generation of revenue. Thus the novelty required for innovation is the main difference between terms. Therefore it can be said that not all entrepreneurs are innovators, as highlighted by some concepts related to entrepreneurship.
