potrepreneur noun. A person who creates a business based on selling marijuana (pot + entrepreneur).

Example Citation:
"Lately it seems that everyone is getting into the 'M-Commerce' market (the M is for 'Mobile,' though in this case it could stand for 'Marijuana'). American drug dealers in Amsterdam have started a company called iToke to sell pot via WAP-enabled cell phones. 'Potrepreneurs' Mike Tucker and Tim Freccia are trying to get venture backing for the company, but so far their plans have gone up in smoke."
—Mike Elgan, "Dial-A-Dope," Mike's List (http://www.mikeslist.com/), August 22, 2000
