Abstract

Against the backdrop of a Nigerian government directive to make entrepreneurship education compulsory in Nigeria’s higher education institutions, this chapter assesses the current state of entrepreneurship education provision and how a new model of partnership between university, industry and public sector stakeholders can facilitate improved delivery and better outcomes of EE programmes. The chapter therefore draws from the Triple Helix theory to propose a new conceptual framework to examine the prospects and opportunities for multi-stakeholder co-creation of entrepreneurship education. The framework is further explored in the light of the case study of Covenant University, a leading Nigerian university that has had some considerable success in delivery of EE programmes. The chapter concludes with recommendations a new collaborative approach to entrepreneurship education design and delivery, and support for the emergence of new entrepreneurial universities that are better equipped for both knowledge production and knowledge capitalisation.
