By and large, Global North includes the United States, Canada, developed parts of Europe, and East Asia. On the other hand, Global South is made up of Africa, Latin America, and developing Asia including the Middle East. So, the North may be defined as richer and more developed region while South is the poorer, and less developed region of the world. As such, the Global economy is controlling by the North through their resources like – Capital and Technology. Thus, the benefits of on-going globalization is also enjoying by themselves.

Against this backdrop, the present paper being a conceptual paper in nature is an attempt to unfold the possible role of entrepreneurs for second globalization from the South and in the process of discussion; it will also highlight the challenges and
opportunities for the entrepreneurs in the milieu of an alternate globalization from the Global South
