<br/><br/> New venture creation is about the actual process of getting a new venture started, growing the venture, successfully harvesting it, and starting again. There is a substantial body of knowledge, concepts, and tools that entrepreneurs need to know-before, during and after taking the start-up plunge-if they are to get the odds in their favor.
