1 Entrepreneurship suffers from the myth that it only deals with the creation of a new venture. However, entrepreneurship is much broader than that as it is not just about establishing a new business but instead about a way of thinking and behaving Cooney & Murray (2008, p68)
2 Between the Dragon s Den and the Didactic Sharing national practices in Entrepreneurship Education from a study of Irish HEIs Maébh Coleman, Programme Manager Accelerating Campus NUIG
3 Introduction The ACE Initiative The story of Accelerating Campus Entrepreneurship A little bit about Entrepreneurship Supply Side Perspectives Policy & culture What are other HEI s doing in this space? No really. what are they up to? Demand Side Perspectives Students (undergraduate and postgraduate) Industry Blue Skies Findings, frameworks and future thinking

9 Entrepreneurial Island: Policy Context Bubble chart of nations sized according to new business density. Source: 2008 World Bank Group Entrepreneurship Survey. GEM Report 2008 No change in new firm entrepreneurs (7.6%) to the fore in terms of international comparison of early stage entrepreneurs Nascent entrepreneurs decreased 4.2% in 2007 to 3.3% in 2008 Sharp decrease in perception that there were good opportunities (sharpest of all GEM countries) 46% to 27% between 2007 and 2008 Necessity entrepreneurs rose from 6% to 19% so 1 in 5 are motivated by necessity Positive social and cultural norms, sharp decline in perception of entrepreneurship as a good career choice Upward trend of women starting businesses has now reversed 5.6% to 4% while men increased 10.6% yo 11.26%
10 Breadth and Depth: A message for the new economy?

20 Findings, frameworks and future thinking
21 What problems to academics think student entrepreneurs face? Academic Financial and Economic Personal Technical Structural Elective rather than mandatory course offering Matching learning outcomes to industry needs Creating an awareness of risk management Access to capital requires experience Prohibitive legislation on bankruptcy Current economic climate prevents investment in new programmes and prohibits growth of new businesses Self-development Teamwork Fear of failure / risk aversion Age of students impacts their credibility Perception of entrepreneurship as a viable career path Opportunity recognition Feasibility studies Sustainability of technology ideas Disjointed agency/policy environment Lack of networks and industry contacts Resources for academics who would like to provide entrepreneurship education No one-stop-shop for student entrepreneurs Access Maébh to support Coleman, and services
22 Five elements for Entrepreneurship Education calculated risk taker creative innovative vision persistence inquisitiveness strong drive to achieve high energy level goal oriented behavior self confident tolerance for failure commitment problem solving skills tolerance for ambiguity strong integrity highly reliable personal initiative strong management skills
