Abstract: In the era of knowledge innovation, this study addresses the new requirements for constructing enterprise intrapreneurial capabilities by examining existing theoretical research, using grounded theory to analyze sample data, and developing a measurement system for intrapreneurial capabilities. The results indicate that intrapreneurial capabilities are a concept model consisting of five categories: innovation, risk-taking, proactivity, resource management, and network construction. Utilizing structural equation verification, the study establishes an optimal second-order, five-factor measurement model for intrapreneurial capabilities, ultimately providing valuable insights for path selection and management in enterprise re-entrepreneurship.
