• Learn more about the past, present and future research in enterprise and entrepreneurship education contribution from an international perspective.
• Challenge some of the findings to date.
• Actively participate in the discussion with the panel of international thought leaders in enterprise and entrepreneurship education.
• Source ideas for your research and/or for new publications.

Summary

This was the third event under the co-badged ISBE-EEUK Special Interest Group in Research in Enterprise Education. The SIG is intended to explicitly link together the research and practice arms of the EntEd discipline: encouraging and supporting educational practitioners to produce research output; to facilitate the development of potential research projects and partnerships between researchers and practitioners; to host activities where researchers and practitioners exchange expert knowledge; and to act as an expert group to inform policy responses and calls for evidence.

This online workshop generated thoughts, discussion and debate on where we need to position and lead the fields of research in enterprise and entrepreneurship education.  It expanded the work being carried out to date by the SIG on a review and extenuation of Ratten and Usmanij’s, (2020) paper Entrepreneurship education: Time for a change in research direction?    The workshop invited reflections and opinions that will contribute to this study which, together with this paper will act as a provocation and catalyst to examine our past, present and future research in enterprise and entrepreneurship education.
