Design/methodology/approach Based on a data set comprehending 2,230 university students from 70 different institutions across the country, the authors develop five Probit models to assess impacts related to individual traits and systemic conditions on five dependent dimensions: entrepreneurial activity, potential entrepreneurs, high-impact entrepreneurship, serial entrepreneurship and innovation-driven entrepreneurship. Findings The lack of significance in many of the variables included in estimations suggests that student entrepreneurship seems to be a rather random phenomenon in Brazil. Research limitations/implications Findings pose challenges for student entrepreneurship, as targets for intervention are not clear. Originality/value Over the past decades, universities have been receiving an increasing demand to go beyond their role of producing science and technology to explore its knowledge potential to produce novel commercial applications. However, while there is a growing interest in ways to foster scientific academic entrepreneurship, universities also serve as a positive environment for student entrepreneurship training, knowledge sharing, testing ideas and learning. So far, the importance of student entrepreneurship has received far less attention than it likely deserves. 2019 artículo científico 1809-2039 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=97360222011 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/973/97360222011/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/973/97360222011/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/973/97360222011/97360222011.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/973/97360222011/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=973 RAI - Revista de Administração e Inovação application/pdf Universidade de São Paulo RAI - Revista de Administração e Inovação (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.16 |
