Abstract

Regardless of country, political or cultural environment, entrepreneurial activity supports economic development, therefore the large interest expressed in this subject is constantly growing. Even if the number of studies that analyse entrepreneurial qualities is close to hundreds, they must be constantly updated in order to understand in real time the constantly changing phenomenon of entrepreneurship. This study attempts to describe the entrepreneurial qualities of students from Cluj-Napoca, Romania within various sectors of the population. In order to analyse the strength of the entrepreneurial qualities of the students from Cluj-Napoca, Romania, we designed a set of 10 questions that deal with certain entrepreneurial traits. Due to the fact that risk taking was the least common entrepreneurial quality, we decided to formulate hypotheses to help us determine what exactly influences this entrepreneurial quality and how strong these influences are.
