Abstract

Building a competent and creative workforce is one of the greatest challenges of modern and future economies. However, fostering creativity and complex problem-solving capability has traditionally not been high on the agenda of our education systems. Drawing from the experiences of implementing an introductory first-year undergraduate module in entrepreneurship in the unique setting of modern China, the authors reflect upon the challenge of entrepreneurship and creativity education, as well as its implications for the next generation of a creative workforce in China.
