Business (English business - business, occupation, enterprise; it came to the Russian language, perhaps through French business or directly from English) - an activity aimed at systematic profit.
In Russian, the words entrepreneurship and business are used interchangeably, but sometimes they have different meanings.
Business is one of the main occupations in a market economy, a source of economic and social development of society. Covers manufacturing, commercial, consulting, banking and other areas of activity.According to the number of employees, the volume of production, the conditions of activity, small, medium and large businesses are distinguished. The most massive type of business is small business: as a rule, it is a small enterprise that produces homogeneous products and occupies a small share in the market. In some countries, there is a system of state support for such a business, since, by self-organizing, it satisfies the daily small needs of people, at the same time providing wide employment.A person who positions himself as a businessman orients his actions towards creating an asset for himself, which, over time, will not cease to bring him income, regardless of the further activity of personal participation in it. He can be either only the owner of the enterprise, or also work at his own enterprise, or develop a partnership with any convenient large enterprise in the field of management, marketing, finance, etc.
