Abstract

In a fast-changing external environment the necessity of the development of entrepreneurial mindset among the young population is becoming increasingly relevant. The aim of the study is to identify the factors of students’ entrepreneurial intentions implementation. When deciding on the choice of an entrepreneurial career, a student evaluates the presence of three types of entrepreneurial capital, which include the competencies necessary for successful business creation. As a result of the study, a three-cluster model of entrepreneurial competencies was developed based on the critical analysis of the scientific literature. It can be used as a tool to assess the willingness of the younger generation to entrepreneurial activity. As part of an empirical study, a number of qualitative research were conducted by the method of interview. The instruments of developing entrepreneurial competencies and intentions were identified and the factors of students’ intentions to set up their own business implementation were revealed.
