“…Unemployment is a major challenge in EU countries such as Estonia (Michoń, 2019;Mursa et al, 2018;Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2018). Unemployment has been an economic reality since the beginning of the global financial crisis in 2008, and it affects the welfare and happiness of the Estonian society.…”

The objective of the article is to examine the influence of institutional environment on potential future entrepreneurs and the mediating role of perceived desirability and feasibility. Research Design & Methods: On the basis of institutional theory, we applied structural equation modelling to test a model of the relationship between three dimensions of institutional environment (regulatory, cognitive, and normative) and Estonian university students' entrepreneurial intentions through the mediating role of perceived feasibility and desirability. Hypotheses were proposed and evaluated using data obtained from a survey of 265 Estonian university students. Findings: Results suggest that each dimension of institutional environment plays a decisive role in Estonian university students' entrepreneurial intentions, except for cognitive dimension, which does not exhibit a significant effect on entrepreneurial intentions through perceived desirability. Implications & Recommendations: The results of this study elucidate university students' entrepreneurial intentions from an Estonian perspective. On the basis of our findings, policymakers and entrepreneurship researchers may better understand how to cultivate entrepreneurial endeavours to facilitate economic development. Contribution & Value Added: This study offers a direction for future investigation by underscoring the importance of cultural differences in determining the validity of institutional theory as a means of testing entrepreneurial intentions.

“…Partly it was a result of the improving economic situation and partly demographic factors, which contributed to the lowering of labour market and education competition (European Commission 2021): as the number of young people declines they have better chances to participate in education, start careers later than the previous generations, and, as a result, are more easily integrated in the labour market. Generations of young people entering the labour markets in the four countries are smaller than the generations of older people leaving them (Michoń 2018(Michoń , 2019a(Michoń , 2019b. The changes in the population age structure appear to be positively related to young adults' unemployment (Biagi and Lucifora, 2008).…”
