Entrepreneurial Capital

This is an interesting article. It basically defines entrepreneurial capital as "a multiplicative function of entrepreneurial competence and entrepreneurial commitment...Entrepreneurial capital can also be conceived as the present value of future entrepreneurial behavior. This is analogous to the PV rule in the finance literature. A similar notion is used when social capital is conceived as the sum of resources in networks" (Erikson, 2002).
