Unlocking Teacherpreneur Potential in Higher Education: Validating a Competency Measurement Scale

This study investigated the level of teacherpreneur competency among pre-service teachers (n = 400), with an additional 400 pilot participants from the same academic context invited for exploratory factor analysis and reliability analysis. A self-reported questionnaire, adapted from the Teacherpreneur Competency Model (TCM), was used to assess participants’ competency across four key domains: pedagogical, social, personality, and professional. The findings revealed that pre- service teachers possessed high levels of teacherpreneur competency, with Personality Competency scoring the highest and Social Competency scoring the lowest. These results suggest that while pre-service teachers have a solid foundation in delivering instruction, targeted interventions are needed within teacher education programs to nurture their entrepreneurial spirit and foster the social and personal attributes associated with teacherpreneurship. This study underscores the importance of integrating comprehensive competency development into teacher education curricula to better prepare future educators for the dynamic demands of the teaching profession.

Drivers and obstacles on refugee entrepreneurship. The host country perspective

Refugee entrepreneurship encompasses the enterprising endeavors undertaken by individuals forced to flee their home countries. This research area has gained scholarly traction due to its profound relevance in the socio-economic perspective. To provide a comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon, a thorough systematic literature review was conducted, drawing upon the Scopus and Web of Science databases. The review scrutinized a corpus of 57 scholarly articles, which were analyzed and categorized into two main themes: the profile of refugees regarding their entrepreneurial intentions, and the contextual factors within the host countries that either facilitate or impede their entrepreneurial pursuits. Refugee entrepreneurship is associated with the necessity-driven perspective, as individuals often embark on entrepreneurial ventures due to the shortage of viable employment opportunities in their host countries. However, there exists a nuanced perspective wherein some refugees leverage their innate entrepreneurial traits, finding resonance between the economic landscapes of their home and host countries. Nevertheless, the inception of entrepreneurial endeavors is invariably accompanied by some obstacles, spanning legal, financial, and socio-economic domains. These obstacles do not deter the entrepreneurial spirit ingrained within many refugees. Instead, they serve as catalysts for resilience and innovation, prompting the formulation of adaptive strategies to surmount barriers and carve out pathways to success, underscoring the economic activity of displaced individuals and exemplifying their capacity to effectuate positive change amidst adversity.

Entrepreneurial intention among Colombian university students: A theory of planned behavior analysis in Colombia

Studies on entrepreneurship have used several approaches, among which, research on entrepreneurial intention (EI) can be highlighted. Studies on EI help researchers better understand entrepreneurial behavior. In this sense, one of the most relevant frameworks in EI studies is the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), which stands out for its predictive capacity, mainly in a university context. The aim of this research was to determine the relationship between the variables of Personal Attitudes (PAs), Subjective Norms (SNs), and Perceived Behavioral Control (PBC) with respect to the EI of university students in Colombia. For this purpose, we constructed a model that integrates the elements of the TPB with EI with reference to the validated instrument of the Global University Entrepreneurial Spirit Student's Survey (GUESSS) project applied to a sample of 12,383 students. The estimation of the model uses structural equations (SEMs) by means of Partial Least Squares-Path Modelling (PLS-PM). The findings show that PAs and PBC are determinants of EI, while SNs have no direct influence; however, their effects are indirect. These results have implications for how to promote entrepreneurship in emerging economies through the university environment. The results indicate that the development of students' capabilities is essential for entrepreneurship and its incorporation into the university's knowledge transfer model.

Characteristics and influencing factors of the industry-university-research collaborative innovation network in China's new energy vehicle industry

Industry-university-research collaboration is the primary channel of industrial innovation, and China is a common context for research on innovation in the new energy vehicle industry. This study analyzes the industry-university-research collaborative innovation network in China's new energy vehicle industry using various software programs, including Gephi and ArcGIS, based on collaborative invention patent data related to the new energy vehicle industry provided by the global patent database incoPat. According to the findings of this study, the highest number of patents obtained through industry-university-research collaboration was observed in new energy vehicle device and accessory manufacturing, whereas the number of new entrants was significantly higher than the number of incumbents albeit in a downward trend, suggesting that the creation of new collaborative relationships among new entrants has always been the main phenomenon in the process of building an industry-university-research innovation system in the new energy vehicle industry. As private firms have long been playing an integral role in industry-university-research collaboration in the new energy vehicle industry, the number of private firms in the network exhibited an upward trend annually, while the dual heterogeneous connection mode was the primary connection mode in industry-university-research collaboration. There were some differences between the spatial characteristics of intraprovincial and interprovincial collaboration in the industry-university-research collaborative network in China's new energy vehicle industry.
