Conference theme: Developing Change Agents through Entrepreneurship Education
The urgent need to empower individuals with the skills and mindset to drive positive change for a better future makes entrepreneurship education more relevant than ever. Now is the time to advance the research within this field and delve deeper into its transformative potential. By exploring entrepreneurship education across levels, disciplines, industries, and contexts, we can deepen our understanding of how entrepreneurship education can develop change agents who drive positive social, economic, and environmental transformation. This year’s 3E Conference, set against the Arctic landscape of Bodø, highlights the importance of these questions in regions facing depopulation and environmental change – where entrepreneurship education can play a crucial role in building resilient communities and enabling students to shape their own futures.
