A chapter in Rethinking Entrepreneurial Human Capital, 2018, pp 1-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The last decades have witnessed a number of structural changes (such as increasing demand for skill, population ageing and new waves of technological progress) that are posing new challenges to firms, also in terms of entrepreneurial human capital. In this context, entrepreneurship education plays a crucial role for the development of entrepreneurial skills, including the value of collaboration in the business activities. This book focuses the attention on entrepreneurial human capital by investigating to what extent it can be stimulated by entrepreneurship education through activities that combine collaborative practices and innovation. This introductory chapter provides a background for the book, a brief overview of its main contents, pointing out, for each chapter, the main research questions, methodology and results. Finally, it proposes some avenues for future research on the relationship between entrepreneurial human capital, innovation and collaborative practices.
