Abstract:
Few topics have been discussed and researched so much, during the last decade, as entrepreneurship. As such, today the literature on entrepreneurship is replete with various models of entrepreneurship. Nonetheless, the significance of practical experiences gained in a particular context to the body of existing knowledge and new learning can be, by no account, contested. However, proceeding from the general to the particular is perilous also because authenticating the particular from the general that too based on secondary sources may not fit in a particular context. Further, secondary sources more often than not offer contestable interpretations and alternate views. Therefore, the context specific actual experiences assume significance in search of new learning of the phenomenon of entrepreneurship. With this in view, the present paper makes an attempt to delineate the actual experiences gained in entrepreneurship development in the North East India and also highlights the prospects it holds for entrepreneurship development of the Region.
