The Supply of High Quality Entrepreneurs in Developing Countries: Evidence from Nigeria

Research Note
Published on 8 December 2016

Abstract

This project evaluated entrepreneurial interest among university undergraduates in Nigeria and the role of compulsory entrepreneurship education in forging this interest. Most undergraduates in Nigeria would like to start their own business but only a handful of them currently do so. Compulsory entrepreneurship education stimulates entrepreneurial interest but does not necessarily reinforce it.
