Etymology
'enterprise-driven' originates from the combination of 'enterprise' and 'driven', where 'enterprise' refers to a business or company and 'driven' implies being motivated or propelled by something.
'enterprise' comes from the Old French word 'entreprise', meaning 'an undertaking', and 'driven' is the past participle of 'drive', from Old English 'drīfan'.
Initially, 'enterprise' meant 'an undertaking or project', but over time it evolved to include the concept of a business or company, while 'driven' has maintained its meaning of being motivated or propelled.
