As both entrepreneur and intrapreneur share similar qualities like conviction, creativity, zeal and insight, the two are used interchangeably. However, the two are different, as an entrepreneur is a person who takes a considerable amount of risk to own and operate the business, with an aim of earning returns and rewards, from that business. He is the most important person who envisions new opportunities, products, techniques and business lines and coordinates all the activities to make them real.
On the contrary, an intrapreneur is an employee of the organization who is paid remuneration according to the success of the business unit, for which he/she is hired or responsible.
The primary difference between an entrepreneur and intrapreneur is that the former refers to a person who starts his own business with a new idea or concept, the latter represents an employee who promotes innovation within the limits of the organization. In this article excerpt, we are providing you wit some other important points of distinction between the two.

Apple looking to hire a ‘senior systems neuroscientist’ for its Technology Development Team
A new job listing posted by Apple in the last week shows the company is looking to hire a "senior systems neuroscientist" capable of "building transformative neurotechnology." As for the actual job description, Apple says the "senior systems neuroscientist" position is a "multi-faceted investigator" role that requires close work with scientists and engineers throughout Apple: This is a multi-faceted investigator role that will require you to be versatile across a variety of tasks in a highly collaborative environment. Further, Apple says the person will join its Technology Development Team: At Apple, we strive to achieve surprise and delight for every one of our millions of customers around the world. While Apple is cagey about specific product focus for this position, the company does note that the person will be required to "carry out quantitative analysis of raw data to pull out meaningful and actionable insights." In the past, Apple has explained how 'Hey Siri' works by using a deep neural network and machine learning - so it seems likely this position could be related to Siri in one way or another.

The people who create these businesses are called entrepreneurs.Entrepreneurship has been described as the "capacity and willingness to develop, organize and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit". While definitions of entrepreneurship typically focus on the launching and running of businesses, due to the high risks involved in launching a start-up, a significant proportion of start-up businesses have to close due to "lack of funding, bad business decisions, an economic crisis, lack of market demand—or a combination of all of these.A broader definition of the term is sometimes used, especially in the field of Economics. In this usage, an Entrepreneur is an entity which has the ability to find and act upon opportunities to translate inventions or technology into new products: "The entrepreneur is able to recognize the commercial potential of the invention and organize the capital, talent, and other resources that turn an invention into a commercially viable innovation." In this sense, the term "Entrepreneurship" also captures innovative activities on the part of established firms, in addition to similar activities on the part of new businesses.
