Respuesta :

Answer:

D) Catering to entrepreneurs

Explanation:

Catering to entrepreneurship is a business practice carried out by corporations that generally seek to purchase start ups for the new technologies that they developed (including patents) rather than for their business model or profits. E.g. F@cebook paid $2 billion for Oculus, and Google acquired Nest for $3.2 billion. None of these companies actually made any money, but the innovations that they develop may generate a lot of money if they are backed up by a major player.  

In this case, catering for entrepreneurs is a similar concept applied within an organization that tries to foster innovations.
