 SUPPORTING GREEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN ROMANIA - IMPERATIVE OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTPaul-Bogdan Zamfir ()
Romanian Economic Business Review, 2014, vol. 9, issue 2, 35-44 Abstract: In the contemporary context of sutainable development we suggest that it is a strategic importance for romanian governement the elaboration and imlementation of a new strategy that should focuse on the problem of green development of entrepreneurial activity. In the vision of this strategy which we propose in this papper, the green entrepreneurs are those persons who are able to create or conceive new businesses after an realistic observation or preliminary identification of new opportunities and business ideas. Also, green entrepreneurs have the capacity to assume the risks necessary to attract resources (financial, human, technological) in order to implement and trade these ideas. Thus, in the context of this strategy we can emphasize that the green entrepreneur’s motivation would range from pure economic opportunity (whereby the green nature is merely the best opportunity rather than a motive itself) to a simple desire to help or change the environment (whereby the entrepreneur could well be starting an environmental nonprofit).
