Abstract

This paper for discussion looks into the aspect of creativity in entrepreneurship education at university level. Over the past 10–15 years such education has grown significantly. The focus has become wider over the years — from a “start your own business” perspective, to the viewing of entrepreneurship as a force of change within or outside of existing organisations. However, the issues of developing motivation, commitment and a wide range of personal competencies — among these creativity — have largely been neglected.
