Through the survey from a region of Uttar Pradesh (UP), India, this paper aims to study the young community’s entrepreneurial attitude (EA) towards entrepreneurship. Design/methodology/approach The data was collected from a young community of various universities and colleges in different regions of UP, India to find out that “Does the EE help in developing a positive EA among young community towards entrepreneurship”. Firstly, 23 interviews have been conducted to explore about EE and EA. Further data was collected from 341 respondents through a structured questionnaire and undertaken done with the descriptive analysis: exploratory factor analysis and multiple regression method to explore the result of this study. Findings After the analysis, it was found that EE played an important role in developing EA of the young community towards entrepreneurship. All the coefficients in the regression model are positive, which means that all the factors of EE (awareness, enterprise knowledge and practical skills) have a positive impact on EA (affective, cognitive and behavioural). Practical implications This study provides a futuristic direction to various academic institutes and government organizations on how they prepare future entrepreneurs by inculcating EA among them. Creative minds generate innovative products and services, create jobs, alleviate poverty and maintain the GDP of a nation. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to identify the relationship between EE and EA with the help of qualitative and quantitative analyses.

“…HC is a very important asset for any organization and represents the basis for socioeconomic development in every country as "a progressive contributor of economic growth" (Aslam, 2020). In this light, Ersozlu, Wildy, and Bastas (2018) argue that HC represented by the IC can be built, among others, on "social relations or networks" as a positive hub in the society, as discussed earlier by some authors (Dana, Etemad, & Wright, 2000;Etemad, Wright, & Dana, 2001;Palalic, Durakovic, Brankovic, & Ridic, 2016;Palali c, Ramadani, Welsh, Dizdarevi c, & Dilovi c, 2019).…”

“…Some economic systems prevent, while others encourage learning certain skill sets necessary for organizations to succeed (Dana, 1987). Leadership in any society (Palalić et al, 2019; Palalić et al, 2020) is also very important for its overall success. Different factors in different regions (Palalic, 2017; Palalic et al, 2016) all play a rudimentary role in shaping the overall educational ecosystem in any given society.…”

Every society's future lies in its youth, which can be considered a critical milestone for a nation's sociopolitical development. This research examines the young population attempting to identify and explores the students' perceptions about migration, their postulates, and the reasoning why so many students ultimately choose to emigrate. Data were collected in a questionnaire survey of 206 randomly selected students from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Some different multivariate analyses were performed to test the hypotheses. Other results were further discussed. Resultsshow that the country's legal framework is a key reason for the prevailing poor living standard. This has resulted in a large number of youths leaving the country. Overall, both the legal framework (for both young entrepreneurs and women) and the overall standard of living (quality of life, well-being, salary, retirement, and education) are correlated with people choosing to emigrate. Furthermore, theoretical and practical implications are discussed. As far as we know, this is the first empirical study on this particular region that investigates the youth migration trends considered an important milestone for human capital development.

“…Firms in collaboration with universities contribute in this regard by enhancing individual’s skills and ability for entrepreneurial activity. This can be reached by establishing a friendly environment for graduate students to benefit from the internship programmes offered by firms (Dvorský et al , 2019; Filippetti and Savona, 2017; Palalić et al , 2019) and government, on the basis of the triple helix model (Feola et al , 2019; Kim et al , 2012).…”

Purpose The effect of a study programme in entrepreneurship on intention to start a business has not received adequate attention by researchers using a pre- and post-programme research design. The purpose of this paper is to find evidence of entrepreneurship education programme on entrepreneurial intention in the context of a post-communist transition county. Design/methodology/approach Coarsened exact matching method is performed to achieve two similar groups: control (people who did not attend a study programme in entrepreneurship) and treated (those who attended) groups. Based on a set of covariates as identified in theory, 442 out of 528 members were matched. Hypotheses developed in a pre- and post-programme setting can be tested by using the ANCOVA. Members’ scores on intention to start a business before the programme was introduced were used as the covariate in this analysis (pre-programme). Findings The analysis confirms a significant difference between the two groups on entrepreneurial intention after the study programme in entrepreneurship was completed (post-programme). The results suggest that entrepreneurial intention is affected by entrepreneurship education programme. Research limitations/implications This study offers useful insights for universities and individuals running a business. Aiming better results in terms of entrepreneurship, university, industry and government should align their efforts following a triple helix model. Originality/value This work adds value to the entrepreneurship literature in the context of post-communist transition country. Furthermore, it uses a rigour methodology that makes the comparison of control and treated groups possible.
