How do you define an entrepreneur?
An entrepreneur is not a label limited to founders only. I believe every person working on an innovative product is an entrepreneur, irrespective of stage of the company. What are the traits of such people?
However it could fit a little bit the second less common French definition, where the word is coming from : https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/entrepreneur
But it would require the person to actually take the decisions and to lead. An average employee working on an innovative product doesn't fit the definition.
A person who runs her own business and risks a considerable part of her own money and time for it. So the typical farmer is an entrepreneur, the typical manager is not.
I dont think innovation is a requirement. Entrepreneurs also built great businesses that's neither original or advanced from other products existing.
An entrepreneur makes money while they sleep.
