26 While power is an important feature of the Schumpeterian innovator entrepreneur, modern innovation literature emphasizes the innovation process’network building nature ( Hronszky, 2002), which means that benevolence and universality has become more important. In our entrepreneurial sample these values are in the top three, and the evaluation of benevolence significantly differs from that of the general population sample, while universalism is equally important for everyone. Security, conformity and tradition on the other hand are values that are less important for entrepreneurs than for the general population – this also clearly shows a value structure close to entrepreneurs.
