Abstract

The goal of this article is to emphasize the main aspects which characterize the notions of entrepreneur, entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial culture. The notion of entrepreneur has been introduced in the economic literature since the late seventeenth century. Entrepreneurial culture is a newly concept that has been introduced in the economic literature since the 60s of last century. Entrepreneurial culture is a complex notion that refers to values, beliefs and attitudes shared in a society, which characterize entrepreneurial lifestyle. Also, this paper contains a study case, which consists in presentation and interpretation of the responses to a questionnaire regarding specific aspects of the entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial culture. The responses to this questionnaire show, among others, the student’s interest for business and the entrepreneurial values which can contribute to business success.
