egyéni vállalkozó /-ás
Private operator / private enterprise


Explanation:
In UK ENG, I would have said: Private operator, and for -ás, I would have said private enterprise .... but, as is so often the case, it depends a great deal on the context.

agree  Katalin Horváth McClure: Igen, a különbség az, hogy az entrepreneur nem szerepel olyan dokumentumokon, ahol a cég jogi formáját kell megjelölni. Az entrepreneur az valakinek a foglalkozása, a sole proprietorship pedig a cég (vállalkozás) jogi formája.

neutral  Leveleki: In England, we don't use "entrepreneur" in ANY kind of "official" sense - it is merely to denote a peerson who does business and, usually, has certain ways of doing it...not always flattering.

  -> Please, take a better look and see that I am not talking about the British version. I indicated this by: (US), meaning use in the US of A.

agree  Istvan Abosi: Az Európai Bizottságnak is dolgozom TEMPUS és Leonardo értékelőként, az EU-ban lehet használni az "individual entrepreneur" kifejezést (jogi kategóriája: természetes személyiség - "natural entity", a céges - corporate - "legal entity"-vel szemben)

egyéni vállalkozó /-ás
private enterpriser/ enterprise


Explanation:
Ez az egyenes válasz a UK-ra.
Az enterpreneur (franciás) változat nincs benne az ODE-ben!
A private enterprise lehet persze óriási is.

The enterpriser survey 2003
06/08/2003. Over half of the UK's entrepreneurs are pessimistic about the economic outlook for the next twelve months, according to Ernst & Young's Enterpriser Survey 2003. The survey also revealed that governmental initiatives aimed at boosting entrepreneurial activity had gone largely unnoticed by those they were meant to encourage.

Függetlenül attól, hogy mit írtam előbb, ez az idézet nem tudja eldönteni, hogy enterpriser vagy enterpreneur. Tengerentúli behatás.

But opetators are usually machine operators, tour operators, freight operators, licenced operators... and of course smooth operators. ;-)
