Abstract: Technology and digitalisation have created more opportunities in entrepreneurship education. Developing innovative teaching and learning techniques in modern entrepreneurship education potentially can improve students' entrepreneurial capacities and mindset. This study aims at exploring: 1) the type of technologies used in entrepreneurship education; 2) how these technological tools support the design and delivery of entrepreneurship knowledge. The study contributes at the theoretical level with a new discussion on technology-supported entrepreneurship education. From a practical perspective, it provides insights into incorporating technological tools for redesigning entrepreneurship education. The integration of technologies in entrepreneurship education requires a wide approach that involves curriculum updates, the technology used for assessment and student evaluation, the faculty readiness to use technology, and partnerships/collaborations with other stakeholders.

Keywords: entrepreneurial mindset; technology; entrepreneurship education.
