Business Angels & Entrepreneurial Intentions of Management Students in Pakistan

Abstract

    This empirical paper's goal is to analyze management students' entrepreneurial desire at Pakistani universities and to solicit funding from business angels. This was a quantitative study and data was collected from 230 management students in Pakistan, 68% of whom were female and 33% of whom were male, and it was broken down using SPSS and AMOS using a questionnaire containing 23 items on a 5-point Likert scale. The study mainly claimed that perceived behavioural control, cultural norms, and entrepreneurial education all have a favourable impact on entrepreneurial intention. This research can assist students who have start-up ideas but lack the necessary funding and it may push students with motivation. However, it only provides a snapshot of university students in a single country at the time and the author did not highlight the study's qualitative component, which would have boosted the efficiency of mediators or moderators. This document gave the perspective to business owners of Pakistan that they might start new associations with business angels' help.
