Abstract: Entrepreneurship is a key driver of today’s economy. This observation emphasizes the necessity of assuring of an adequate entrepreneurship education on the labour market. The role of this educational strand is to educate students in order to understand the activity of entrepreneurship, to develop their entrepreneurial meaning attitudes and intention to lead a business. One important aspect of students’ entrepreneurial preparation refers to the competencies in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) that must be shaped in accordance with the specificity of the 21st century digital economy. This paper shapes the framework of an Entrepreneurship Curriculum, emphasizing the importance of the ICT component. Ten subjects are proposed, along with their generic and specific competencies. This work is part of the results developed through the program „Designing a Curriculum for Entrepreneurship: a case-workshop of a Community of Creation, organized by Kemi-Tornio University of Applied Sciences.
