What is Intrapreneurship?

Intrapreneurship concerns entrepreneurship that occurs within an existing, established company. 

Who is an Intrapreneur? 

An intrapreneur refers to an employee whose orientation or responsibility is to develop an innovative project or idea within a company. 

An Intrapreneur is generally characterized by self-motivation, creativity in solving complex problems, proactivity and being action-oriented. 

To foster intrapreneurs, the company generally gives employees a sense of independence, freedom to explore, learn, impact and be celebrated for being innovative. This way, it fosters efficiency at work and aids the general development of the company.
