“…Koe, Majid, and Ismail (2012), refer knowledge, business experience and attitude, while Gelderen, Kautonen, and Fink (2015) refer emotions, as a factor for entrepreneurial intention. In relation to genre, Santos, Roomi, and Liñán (2016) claim that males display more favourable entrepreneurial intentions, once women are more likely to fear failure, and men demonstrate greater self-confidence in their ability to start a business (Santos, Silva, Rodrigues, Marques and Leal, 2017).…”

The significant importance of entrepreneurship for the economic development, job creation and innovation have increased the concerns of researchers and decision makers at different levels for the understanding and investigation of the factors that could have an impact on the level of entrepreneurial activity. In fact, differences in entrepreneurial activity and entrepreneurship are substantial, persistent and distinct from their background in different nations and / or regions, especially in Europe. Theoretical studies and empirical studies confirm that the entrepreneurial activities of individuals are the main drivers of the development of entrepreneurship, namely in terms of economic growth, mainly through the contribution to the creation of new jobs, the development of competitiveness and innovations at the enterprise.For this purpose, we used two Global Databases Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) of the year 2015, which were duly adapted and thus created the database for the analysis of this study, having as justification performed literature review considered the variables necessary for this purpose.Results reveal that the key determinants of the entrepreneurial intention in the European countries are: "perceived capacity" by the individual; the "entrepreneurial intention" itself which will, in fact, influence the "rate of nascent entrepreneurship"; the "governmental and political factors" in relation to the respective "financing for the entrepreneur", and the "basic education and training" in entrepreneurship which influence "research & development".

“…Quite a number of studies have employed intention-based theories such as Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) or Entrepreneurial Event Model (EEM) (e.g. : Koe et al 2012;Mahmoud et al 2015;Guerrero et al 2008;Audet, 2004;Fitzsimmons and Douglas, 2011). However, there is a lack of consensus of the theory (Sandhu et al 2011).…”

The importance of entrepreneurship to a nation development is unneglectable. Malaysian government has carried out various supporting activities to promote entrepreneurial activities in the country. However, the results were less embracing, especially among the young adults. As such, understanding of what influence young adults' intention towards entrepreneurship is important in the effort of entrepreneurship development. This study was carried out to address the university students' level of entrepreneurial intention and the influence of individual entrepreneurial orientation (IEO) on entrepreneurial intention. A questionnaire survey was conducted on 176 undergraduate students from a public university with "entrepreneurial university" status. The results indicated that university students demonstrated intention towards entrepreneurship and were quite positive towards becoming entrepreneurs. In addition, university students' entrepreneurial intention was found to be positively affected by their quality of proactiveness and innovativeness. However, risk-taking ability was not an influential factor on entrepreneurial intention. Theoretically, this paper confirmed the importance of studying EO at the individual level. Practically, it suggested that higher learning institutions should pay careful attention in designing their entrepreneurship education curriculum. Specifically, the entrepreneurship training should focus on enhancing students IEO ability and increasing their entrepreneurial intention. Recommendations for future researchers have also been put forth at the end of this paper.

“…Koe (2012) stated that it is important to integrate other relevant variable into TPB model to increase its ability to explain and predict intention since the intent to become self-employed does not depend exclusively on students' attitudes connected with entrepreneurship, the subjective norms from society or the selfefficacy of individual. Infact, TPB explains only 30 to 45% of the intention variable (Kolvereid, 1996;Liñán& Chen, 2009.…”

Theory of planned behavior -TPB (Ajzen, 1991) stated that single best predictor of the behavior to establish a new venture is entrepreneurship intention. Entrepreneurship intention could be seen as the key to understanding the entrepreneurial process and the first step in the complex process of entrepreneurship. Therefore, deeply understanding the determinant factors of this phenomenon can be referred to as the key method to efficiently propose policies and solutions promoting the rate of firms started. This research aims to suggest a conceptual entrepreneurial intent construct among technical students in Vietnam who are seen as the potential sources of nascent innovative entrepreneurs. The construct is mainly based on TPB with three intention anticipants including (1) attitude toward the new venture creation,(2) subjective norm and (3) perceived behavior control. In addition, three more influencing factors are added to the construct, namely (4) perceived risks, (5) demographic factors and (6) entrepreneurship education programs. We wish to develop a comprehensive entrepreneurial intention scale for measuring entrepreneurial intention and it's affecting factors that can trigger and enhance individual entrepreneurial intention among technical students in a contextual circumstance specific to a factor driven economy in Vietnam.
