The team has selected the IT industry because this newly-emerged industry commands high market potential and growth. A second motivation for the study is that Singapore is in need of entrepreneurs who can constantly innovate, experiment, fail, pick themselves up and start all-over again in this industry, which the team denotes as ITpreneurs.
