Today, in the increasingly fierce competition, entrepreneurs as the key point of the enterprise and the external network connection, is connected to the organization and external resources channels. Entrepreneurs rely on their social relations network, and constantly mobilize resources within the network, these resources contain knowledge resources, these resources for the enterprise to provide support for the correct innovation activities.
