Entrepreneurship and Ethics: A Critical Discussion

In the 21st century, entrepreneurship has opened up new opportunities for small and large business corporations. The concept has enhanced the way individuals have envisioned business from varied perspectives. New technologies have widened the scope through which business activities can be perceived and operated. Entrepreneurship development has enabled a platform through which businesses can solve complex problems affecting them. While such technologies have enhanced the effectiveness of undertaking business, they have also improved the development of unethical issues across practices and engagements. Technology has led to unethical practices, where individuals use modern technology to provide compromised tools and methods. In addition, entrepreneurs use social media platforms to market their products without considering relevant ethics. Others experience harassment and discrimination, posing a threat to their health and safety. Lastly, privacy is a critical issue for entrepreneurs, making it necessary to maintain high levels of ethics to overcome various unethical problems related to business ventures.
