Entrepreneurial Finance

Entrepreneurial finance is a relatively new subfield of finance that combines elements of both traditional finance and business. Entrepreneurship is the discovery for, assessment of, and pursuit of chances to create and commercialise novel products, services, organisational structures, market niches, manufacturing techniques, or supplies via the use of initiative and resourcefulness. Opportunities may come from a variety of places, and studying where they come from, what shape they take, how they are discovered and evaluated, how resources are gathered and used to capitalise on them, and the people who do these things are all part of the study of entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs require access to funding to launch a new venture. In reality, studies on how to get resources are among the most studied topics in the field of entrepreneurship. Moreover, financial support is a crucial asset for every entrepreneur to have at their disposal. Financial matters include the acquisition, investment, and management of capital, as well as their respective costs and benefits. It is discussed in the context of states and nations, markets and businesses, and individuals themselves, as in the term ‘personal finance’. The focus of this book is ‘corporate finance’, a subfield of finance devoted to business concerns. Coverage in this book ranges from an overview of the entrepreneur and the entrepreneurial spectrum to specifics on creating a business plan, analysing financial accounts, management of cash flow, valuing a company, and securing venture capital and debt financing.
