Focusing on the role entrepreneurship centres can play within the UK and other countries this

centres. It questions how these Higher Education Centres contribute to enterprise and
entrepreneurship curriculum enhancement research and support to entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurship Centres responds to the renewed focus on Higher Education Institutions to play
a meaningful role in socio-economic development and the need for such centres to act as an
equal component to the traditional roles of teaching and research within universities. With
case studies from the UK Africa Europe and Canada this collection contributes to the debate
on whether entrepreneurship centres can and should play an important role in entrepreneurship
activities within HEIs.
