$[20$ Marks$]$

Study the following information and answer the questions that follow.

Mrs Portia Malala is part of a large team of business researchers exploring a broad set of research questions in a wide$-$

ranging entrepreneurship research project meant to promote entrepreneurship, enterprise development and employment

creation across South Africa. Each team member is tasked with answering a single research question of significance.

Mrs Malala's research question is: Do serial entrepreneurs develop intangible capital that they carry with them as they

move from their first entrepreneurial venture to a new more productive one?

She has decided to conduct a face$-$to$-$face interview of$,$ at least, ten serial entrepreneurs in an empirical investigation

aimed at understanding their lived experiences of continuously coming up with new ideas and starting new business

ventures; how they make sense of entrepreneurial opportunities; how they keep their passion burning and stay

motivated in a start$-$up; as well as their perspectives on how the complex emotions associated with running multiple

ventures simultaneously are best managed. Mrs Malala intends taking along to each interview session, an interview

guide, a notepad and a pen, and an audio recorder.
