Venera Manciu, Suzana Demyen

Abstract


Often, the issue of entrepreneurship is analyzed more in terms of the skills of the person in question and less in terms of secondary factors. However, one cannot neglect the role of luck in achieving success, nor the capitalization of the right opportunity at the right time. Although long-term success is clear that it cannot be ensured in the absence of financial, human, material or informational resources, time plays an essential role in consolidating an idea, as well as in ensuring a sustainable character, but it also becomes important. conjuncture. This paper addresses the issue of entrepreneurial success from two points of view, on the one hand through the prism of theory, on the other hand through a case study that can only be the stage for launching a more detailed research.
