Furthermore, it could even be assimilated as an alternative livelihood to lack of employment or risk of becoming unemployed.

The enterprising spirit of the new generation is impacted by entrepreneurial education, developing the can do attitude and enforces it`s role within economy and the society. The required skillset that allows entrepreneurs to transform ideas into action are: creativity, innovation and risk appetite as well as goal and project management. The hereby paper is a quantitative research of entrepreneurial intent within economic studies graduates and the impact of the Romanian entrepreneurial promotion initiatives on the aforementioned.
