Can a software engineer become an entrepreneur? Are there any other skills required to become an entrepreneur? If so, how can a software engineer acquire them?

yes.

Anyone can become an entrepreneur.

Skills you must have

NO SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCE OR SOCIAL MEDIA JUNK IN NAME OF BUSINESS IDEA.

Scrolling pages of linkedin, facebook, youtube is never business research . It is research how to lose hard earned money to impractical ideas in name of business.

So if you wish to become an entrepreneur… Learn to avoid such fake , outdated information .

Real , profit making businesses never reveal whole truth on Internet . and that hidden truth actually is secret recipe to succeed in segment. Whatever field you choose to invest yourself on, make sure hard work, smart work combination , guts to take risk and invest and correct initial failure .

Dont expect immediate success in any segment.

I dont know what are your business ideas..

Most of the time, International call center business is easy to start and long term outsourcing business if done with proper budget, team effort and consistency in hard - smart work combination.

Thank you.
