🎙️ New ScreenME Podcast episode is out!
What does entrepreneurship education teach us about gender, role models, and who gets to be seen as an entrepreneur?
In the latest episode of the ScreenME Podcast, Ulrike Rohn talks with Celine Maerz, research associate at the University of Potsdam, about entrepreneurship education, gender gaps, and the assumptions that shape how students and teachers think about entrepreneurship.
💡 Why do figures like Elon Musk and Steve Jobs still dominate young people’s image of an entrepreneur?
💡 Does the term “female entrepreneurship” help make inequalities visible—or reinforce the idea that male entrepreneurship is the norm?
đź’ˇ How can schools introduce students to a wider range of founders, business models, and entrepreneurial pathways?
The conversation also looks beyond the idea of an “entrepreneurial mindset.” Creativity, self-efficacy, autonomy, and willingness to take risks matter—but so do the structural conditions and opportunities available to different people.
Drawing on research in Germany and observations from a study visit to Estonia, Celine and Ulrike discuss how entrepreneurship education can foster agency, creativity, autonomy, intrapreneurship, and entrepreneurial action while remaining inclusive and attentive to structural inequalities.
