Have you ever heard about how Thomas Alva Edison discovered the bulb lamp? It
was not discovered by accidents, but he made it after a vast number of failure. His discovering
was inspired by his need on lights when he was working at the night. At the first trial, there
were some lacks on this invention, the lamp only survived for 45 hours before it broke.
Gradually, this discovery was improving and fulfilling the needs of people who lives and
works at the night. Then, he patented his innovation and became one of famous inventor and
businessman that ever lived.1 The story of Edison that depicts him as entrepreneur.
The methods on proving this assumption will be divided into two steps. The first step
is collecting the data by interviewing people who do not understand about entrepreneurship
and people who have better understanding in entrepreneurship as the variables. The data are
collected by polling system through minimum 5 closed questions (30 samples for each
variable). The second step is doing literature research to match the assumption and find the
truth between assumption and theories. After collecting data, we discuss it to connect the link
between assumption and evidence based facts. Thus, the data and discussion are resumed and
ended as the conclusion with the clear statement.
