Technopreneurship



Technopreneurship in Davao City:

Davao city is one of the highest technopreneurship city in the Philippines, based on the study conducted by the information communications and technology. As the findings suggest, Davao city is an emerging city of new developments and because of this, new jobs are being adapted, and one field is in technology. Jobs related to technology such as internet cafes, computer stores, call centers, mobile phone stores, web design and computer related businesses and corporation and the like have been emerging since the development of Davao city. For this reason, the city has also produced a lot of graduates of information technology related courses, as well as in commerce and management.

A lot of business now, in davao city, are focused marketing technology stuff, such as computers, computer parts and gadgets. In line with this, some loans have been converted to it parks and businesses, mostly call centers. Outsource companies have a lot to do with the technopreneurship in Davao city. Also there are more online stores now, davaosale.com, for example.


Technopreneurship in the Philippines:

The Philippines’ technopreneurship can be concluded in just a sentence, the Filipinos know technology, however, they are not able to fully adapt the concept because they are not ready for the change. Based on the resources that I have read, a lot of Filipinos are aware of what technology can do to them, however, because of its fast emerging event, changes may not be easily adapted, since they are more accustomed to old ways, which cannot be easily replaced. But to take note, the Philippines have a lot of IT businesses already, and some infrastructure also adapt IT stuff in order to operate.

However, as Filipinos are so eager to compete with the changing world, they tend to buy and sell products that aren’t good in quality. Although these products (mostly gadgets), are usable, most of them are fake and that’s not a great thing for technopreneurship in the country.


Global Technopreneurship:

Technopreneurship, globally, is such a fast pacing economic builder. Nowadays, engaging into technopreneurship gives a company, a businessman, or even a young man, a greater edge than other companies who prefer using the old ways. Take for example the ever growing business in the world wide web, may it be local, a lot of people are experiencing convenience surfing the net and buying online. Online stores, shopping cart systems, do not only provide convenience but the easiest way to earn profit, and saving a lot from expenses.

Also, technological advances, like computer manipulated machines, are marketed to large companies to enhance their service, this in turn does not only show how popular technology is in the market, but it also shows that people, globally, are adapting technology in their business, and in their lives. Probably the most noted countries for having such great influences on technopreneurship are Japan and the United States. Because they have more advances and that they profit more on using technology, other countries follow them.

In short, the global technopreneurship is one of the greatest achievements of technology, and it is one of the most influencing changes that the world is going through, and is continue to grow.
