Integrating Simulation Tools Into Entrepreneurship Education

Andreas N. Masouras

The integration of simulation tools into entrepreneurship education transforms how entrepreneurs learn, experiment, and develop critical business skills. These digital and virtual tools offer students immersive, hands-on experiences that replicate real-world challenges, enabling them to test business ideas, make decisions, and navigate complex market dynamics in a risk-free environment. As entrepreneurship education continues to evolve, the adoption of simulation tools plays a key role in preparing students to succeed in the increasingly fast-paced, uncertain, and competitive business landscape. Further exploration of successful implementations highlights the potential of these technologies to shape the next generation of entrepreneurs. Integrating Simulation Tools Into Entrepreneurship Education explores the integration of simulation technologies and methodologies in entrepreneurship education. It examines the theoretical underpinnings, practical applications, benefits, challenges, and future directions of using simulations to teach entrepreneurship. This book covers topics such as digital technology, gamification, and online learning, and is a useful resource for educators, academicians, business owners, entrepreneurs, and researchers.
