djilk commented on the word entrepreneurialism
Unfortunately, people have been using this word to mean entrepreneurship, which is already a perfectly good word. Entrepreneurialism (along with entrepreneurism, which I think is inferior) could describe that set of beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that attend one who is entrepreneurial, but has nothing to do with the specifics of starting a business or organization.
