Question No: 35 ( Marks: 3 ) What is copyright? What are its limitations. COPYRIGHT A copyright protects original works of authorship. The protection does not protect the idea itself. It allows someone else to use the idea in a different manner. In 1980 the Computer Software Copyright Act was added to provide explanation of the nature of software protection under copyright law. Authors of software are protected in a manner similar to authors of artistic works. The idea is not eligible for protection, but the actual software program is eligible. The PTO issues registration for software source codes and object codes programs. Protection of material on the Internet has become an important issue. The New York Time recently claimed that Amazon.com couldn’t use its best-seller list without its permission. Ownership of stock quotes, judicial decision, and real estate postings is also being questioned. Copyrights are registered with the Library of Congress. All that is needed is the form, two copies of the work, and the appropriate fee sent to the Register of Copyrights. The term of the copyright is the life of the author plus 50 years. In some instances, several forms of protection may be available: trademark, patent, and copyright. Question No: 36 ( Marks: 5 ) While using brain storming for new idea creation what measures should be taken to acquire a good idea? Brainstorming A group method of obtaining new ideas and solutions is called brainstorming. The brainstorming method for generating new ideas is based on the fact that people can be stimulated to greater creativity by meeting with others an d participating with organized group experiences. Although most of the ideas generated from the group have no basis for further development, often a good idea emerges.

CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING Creative problem solving is a method for obtaining new ideas focusing on the parameters. Brainstorming The first technique, brainstorming, is probably the most well known and widely used for both creative problem solving and idea generation. It is an unstructured process for generating all possible ideas about a problem within a limited time frame through the spontaneous contribution of participants. All ideas, no matter how illogical, must be recorded, with participants prohibited from criticizing or evaluating during the brainstorming session.

Reverse brainstorming Similar to brainstorming, but criticism is allowed and encouraged as a way to bring out possible problems with the ideas.

Question No: 37 ( Marks: 5 ) While developing the web site what characteristics should be kept in mind?

USING THE INTERNET AS A RESOURCE TOOL Thanks to technology, entrepreneurs are able to access information efficiently, expediently, and at very little cost. The Internet can serve as an important source of information in preparing the business plan. Information on industry analysis, competitor analysis, and measurement of market potential can be located. In addition, the Internet also provides opportunities for actually marketing the new venture’s products. A web site, or home page, typically describes a firm’s history, existing products, background of the founders, and other information to create a favorable image. The web site can be a vehicle for advertising or for direct marketing. Many new ventures use web pages to increase sales contacts and reach potential customers. An entrepreneur can also access competitors’ web sites to gain knowledge of their strategy in the marketplace. To gather information anonymously the entrepreneur can also investigate newsgroups. All that is needed to use these sources is a small investment in hardware and software. MIDTERM EXAMINATION Fall 2009 MGT602- Entrepreneurship Compose and prepare by sanasunny=14

The strength of ties between the entrepreneur and any individual is dependent on the frequency, level, and reciprocity of the relationship. An informal network for moral and professional support benefits the entrepreneur.

Question No: 41 ( Marks: 5 ) Enlist any five characteristics in which male entrepreneurs are different from female entrepreneurs. Education Education appears important in the upbringing of the entrepreneur, in the level of education obtained and in playing a major role in coping with problems. Although formal education is not necessary for starting a new business, it does provide a good background. In education, female entrepreneurs previously experienced some disadvantage, with few having degrees in engineering, science, or math. The ability to deal with people and communicate clearly in written and spoken work is also important. Personal Values Studies have failed to indicate that entrepreneurs can be differentiated on personal valued from managers, unsuccessful entrepreneurs, or the general public. Leadership, support, aggression, benevolence, conformity, creativity, veracity, and resource seeking may also be important. A successful entrepreneur is frequently characterized as a winner; winning may be a prerequisite for his or her actually becoming one. Age Entrepreneurial age is the age of the entrepreneur reflected in the experience. Entrepreneurial experience is one of the best predictors of success. In chronological age, most entrepreneurs start their careers between ages 22 and 55. Earlier starts in an entrepreneurial career seem to be better than later ones. Generally, male entrepreneurs start their first venture in their early 30s, while women tend to do so in their middle 30s.

Work History Dissatisfaction with one’s job often motivates the launching of a new venture. Previous technical and industry experience is also important once the decision to start a business is made. Experience in the following areas is particularly important: financing; product or service development; manufacturing; development of distribution channels; and preparation of a marketing plan. As the venture becomes established, managerial experience and skills become more important. Entrepreneurial experience becomes increasingly important as the complexity of the venture increases. MOTIVATION While motivations may vary, the reason cited most often for becoming an entrepreneur independence-not wants to work for anyone else. Other motivating factors differ between male and female entrepreneurs. Money is the second reason for men’s starting a venture. Job satisfaction, achievement, opportunity, and money are the second order reasons for women.

Question No: 42 __ ( Marks: 5 ) X.Y.Z Company has launched a product in the market. And the customers are complaining about the quality of the product. Company is not taking any action against it.
