David,  
 
Great points from Fred Smith, I buy you point in the end that entrepreneurship does not only mean that you own a company, one can be a entrepreneur for the organisation he/she is working.  
 
But there is a flip side to this since a lot of talents/innovations were ignored within organisations which lead to people being entrepreneurs and do their own start up, I'm wondering if organisations in future could support and harness the opportunities of entrepreneurship in employees ? 
 
I came across a video of a young leader talking about entrepreneurship, you might be interested to see this
