“…While entrepreneurship support programmes vary greatly in duration, structure and content (Garavan and O'Cinneide 1994), there are three main areas of focus: technical skills, business management skills and personal entrepreneurial skills (Hisrich and Peters, 1998). Leon (2017) provides an extensive review of literature relating to the nature of skills identified by researchers as being focused on in enterprise education programmes. These core skills are summarized in Table 1 and mapped onto those described by Hisrich and Peters. Many research and policy initiatives focus on the role of higher education in fostering entrepreneurship and developing entrepreneurial competence (Arthur et al, 2012;Rae and Wang, 2015), and pressures on higher education to become more entrepreneurial have meant that business and management disciplines have seen a large growth in research exploring the teaching of entrepreneurship as a subject (Carey and Matlay 2010).…”

This paper considers business and enterprise education through the lens of theatre and the creative arts, and identifies new pathways towards an interdisciplinary way of supporting the young innovators of the future, placing higher education as a central catalyst. Following a review of key criticism directed at traditional business and management approaches in the academy, the article problematizes the notion of experiential enterprise education in the curriculum and poses the question as to where and when students are afforded the opportunity to fail. Through an autoethnographic account, the key themes of authenticity, risk and failure, experiential approaches and embeddedness are presented. There is an urgent need for further and higher education institutions to develop a much more holistic and interdisciplinary approach to developing entrepreneurship in their students. These institutions are currently perpetuating pedagogical hypocrisy in that they preach productive failure while practising assessment success. An effective 21st-century approach would champion risk-taking and productive failure, place processes over outputs and acknowledge the important role of the post-course curriculum.

This paper tests the impact of different types of management within family businesses on digital innovation related to Industry 4.0 investments, from a geographical perspective. The data set consists of 3,000 Italian manufacturing small-and medium-sized enterprises. Using probit models, the results show that while in the more advanced area (center-north) external management affects the propensity for innovation significantly, in the less developed area (Southern Italy) external management requires an additional and simultaneous investment in R&D to drive a firm's innovation. This suggests that innovation policy should define incentives that also help enhance new management business models and take into account behavioral features of different firms in relation to the level of the development of the geographical areas in which they operate.
