This paper presents the results of an empirical study of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) in Bulgarian software industry. The study assesses the levels of entrepreneurial intensity and the internal organizational climate for corporate entrepreneurship among the employees of established Bulgarian-owned software companies. The CE factors validated by the study are management support, autonomy /work discretion and rewards/ reinforcement. The relationships among the factors of the organizational climate for CE and entrepreneurial intensity (EI) are tested and a model for the CE factors explaining EI is presented.
