The research presented in this study distinguishes itself through its pedagogical approach to entrepreneurship, aiming to transcend prevailing economicistic perspectives. It introduces the concept of “imprenditività” (Morselli 2016) as a broader formative dimension, focusing on the capacity to act on opportunities and ideas, transforming them into value for the development of personal and professional projects, rather than solely hard skills. Exploring the role of Higher Education in fostering entrepreneurial competencies for the university-to-work transition and beyond constitutes a fundamental point of inquiry in this research, offering new perspectives for educational innovation and the professional development of young adults. Through three case studies, various experiences of integrating entrepreneurship within university education in Ireland, Italy, and the United Kingdom have been examined.
