Abstract:

Opportunities abound to make money by packaging and applying information and knowledge, offering information and knowledge based services, and managing intellectual capital more effectively. However, to exploit them a new generation of information, knowledge and learning entrepreneurs need to be developed. Companies that are intent upon creating and exploiting intellectual capital need to encourage and support information entrepreneurs. The current situation and climate for information entrepreneurship need to be assessed, and educators, trainers and developers should define relevant competencies and take appropriate steps to equip people with them.
