Dear colleagues,
A persistent assumption in entrepreneurship education is that the "entrepreneurial mindset" can be developed through exposure to content, cases, and experiential activities.
What remains less examined is whether this assumption fully captures what is happening at the level of entrepreneurial cognition.
An alternative perspective is beginning to emerge: what is often described as "mindset" may be better understood as a set of underlying cognitive processes shaping how individuals interpret, frame, and act under uncertainty in opportunity formation.
From this standpoint, the focus shifts from developing mindset as something to be expressed, to shaping the conditions under which cognitive processes are formed.
This raises a further question:
At what stage, and under what conditions, do our interventions begin to influence how entrepreneurial thinking itself is formed?
