project entrepreneurs are individuals who are engaged in the repeated assembly or creation of temporary organizations. these are organizations that have limited lifespans which are devoted to producing a singular objective or goal and get disbanded rapidly when the project ends. industries where project-based enterprises are widespread include: sound recording, film production, software development, television production, new media and construction. what makes project-entrepreneurs distinctive from a theoretical standpoint is that they have to "rewire" these temporary ventures and modify them to suit the needs of new project opportunities that emerge. a project entrepreneur who used a certain approach and team for one project may have to modify the business model or team for a subsequent project.
