This paper examines why individuals intend to leave their jobs to start business venture. Findings, using a sample of 4192 IT professionals in Singapore, suggest that work environments with an unfavourable innovation climate and/or lack of technical excellence incentives influence entrepreneurial intentions through low job satisfaction.
