Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate the impact of digital entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial success in Pakistan, taking into account the moderating effect of resource availability. Data were collected from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and venture capitalists in the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted to simultaneously gather information from various entrepreneurs, employing a questionnaire as the data collection tool. The study utilized the convenience sampling approach, along with regression and correlation analysis. The findings of the research reveal a significant influence of digital entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial success. Entrepreneurial success is positively affected by both entrepreneurial orientation and creativity. Additionally, the availability of resources plays a significant role in shaping the relationship between digital entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial success. It is important to note that this study employed a convenience sampling strategy, resulting in a limited sample size, and the data relied on self-reported. This study's report is anticipated to offer valuable insights for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), entrepreneurs, and investors.
