Chapter 1 in The Researcher Entrepreneur, 2023, pp 1-7 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract There are few similarities between the scientific process and the technological entrepreneurship process. Both involve systematic searching for optimum solutions via iterations and both often rely on trial and error. But in the former case research is mostly open-ended (we don’t always know what we’ll find), whereas in the second case we aim for a specific product or service. A researcher and an entrepreneur also require different skill sets but it is not impossible for a researcher to learn to become a Researcher Entrepreneur.
