Abstract

Many studies show that entrepreneurial education has a positive impact on and reinforces entrepreneurial intentions. However, entrepreneurial intentions are not firm formation. People who intend to become entrepreneurs will not necessarily establish firms. By using a large original dataset, this paper examines the impact of different kinds of academic and professional entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurship. The results indicate that in comparison with no entrepreneurship education at all, entrepreneurship education courses do have a positive impact on entrepreneurship in general and student entrepreneurship in particular. In addition, a combination of entrepreneurship education from different organizations, such as government agencies, incubators/accelerators and universities, promotes the establishment of high-technology firms.
