This paper examines how participation in a student business plan competition can contribute to the development of entrepreneurial skills, using a case study of FINRA University Tuzla. The competition was organised as an integral part of the courses Entrepreneurship and Business Finance, in which first- and second-year students worked in teams to prepare business plans and present them before a professional jury. Out of forty submitted business plans, twelve were selected for the final presentations and evaluated by university professors, representatives of the banking sector, local government, business associations and successful entrepreneurs. The analysis focuses on the design of the competition, the types of support provided to students and the perceived benefits in terms of motivation, self-confidence, creativity and practical application of theoretical knowledge. The findings suggest that embedding business plan competitions into the curriculum, in cooperation with real-sector partners, can significantly enhance students’ entrepreneurial learning experience. The paper concludes with recommendations for further improvement of such initiatives and directions for future research. 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33779 Название: Motivational approaches in supporting student startup initiatives Авторы: Hryhorevska, Olena 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33778 Название: Motivation mechanisms for engaging students in startup initiatives Авторы: Anđušić, Milica 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33777 Название: Student engagement strategies in developing startup initiatives for the agricultural sector Авторы: Vornicu, Laura Краткий осмотр (реферат): This article examines the critical role of structured student engagement as a catalyst for developing innovative startup initiatives within the agricultural sector. It argues that addressing the profound challenges of 21st-century agriculture, including food security, climate resilience, supply chain sustainability, and rural economic vitality, requires a paradigm shift. This shift moves beyond traditional agronomic education toward the active cultivation of entrepreneurial thinking and venture creation within academic institutions. By integrating students into the innovation lifecycle, universities can simultaneously accelerate agricultural transformation and fulfill their educational mandate to develop capable, solution-oriented graduates. The central thesis posits that effective student engagement in agri-startup development is not a passive extracurricular activity but a strategic, pedagogically grounded process. It requires the deliberate design of ecosystems that connect academic knowledge with real-world problems, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and provide the experiential scaffolding necessary to translate ideas into viable, impactful ventures. The urgency for this engagement is underscored by a confluence of global pressures. The agricultural sector faces the imperative to produce more food with fewer resources for a growing population, adapt to and mitigate climate change, and navigate complex socio-economic transitions in rural communities worldwide. Concurrently, technological disruptions, from precision agriculture and genomics to blockchain and AI, are creating unprecedented opportunities for innovation. However, the sector often suffers from an innovation adoption gap and a perceived lack of attractiveness to young talent. Engaging students in startup creation directly addresses these issues by injecting fresh perspectives, digital-native skills, and entrepreneurial energy into agriculture. It transforms students from passive job seekers into active job and value creators, potentially reversing rural brain drain and fostering a new generation of “agri-preneurs” who view the field as a high-impact, technologydriven career frontier. 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33776 Название: Theoretical aspects of student motivation for startup activities Авторы: Tsalko, Tetiana 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33775 Название: Features of developing student business projects in the creative industries Авторы: Tkachenko, Alina; Yurko, Igor 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33774 Название: Innovative methods for motivating students to create startups Авторы: Kravchenko, Olena; Trehubenko, Maryna; Chopey, Victoria 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33773 Название: Innovative experience in modernizing the content and teaching methods of disciplines at Poltava University of Economics and Trade Авторы: Sokolova, Alona 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33772 Название: Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of students in startup projects Авторы: Zaika, Vitalii Краткий осмотр (реферат): Student participation in startup projects is a key driver of innovation, entrepreneurial ecosystems, and sustainable economic development in the context of digital transformation. Motivation plays a decisive role in determining the level of engagement, persistence, and success of students in entrepreneurial activities. This paper explores the nature of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of students involved in startup projects, analyzes their impact on entrepreneurial intentions and learning outcomes, and identifies practical tools for enhancing motivation within university-based startup ecosystems. Special attention is paid to the role of knowledge valorization centers, impact campuses, and digital platforms in fostering sustainable student entrepreneurship. 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z https://er.knutd.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33771 Название: Sucessiful educational methods to foster sustainable education Авторы: Slavkova, Emilija Краткий осмотр (реферат): This study examines hackathons as effective educational formats for fostering sustainability competencies in the fashion and textile sector. Through an analysis of a three-day fashion hackathon in Athens, case studies based on the mentoring of two early-stage circular startups, the research shows how participants learn, collaborate and translate sustainability principles into concrete, actionable concepts. A qualitative and inductive methodology was applied, using structured observation, visual and process documentation, reflective mentor notes and two case studies. These findings show that hackathon-based education combined with structured mentoring can jointly improve the capacity to advance sustainable fashion practices. 2025-12-11T00:00:00Z
