However, there is no magic programmethat will guarantee you a new successful business. The process of creating abusiness is highly stochastic (not all business ideas make it) and iterative (basedon what you learn as you proceed, you will likely have to modify your thinkingand repeat parts of earlier steps). This paper explores the role of academics inthis process, the economic literature related to entrepreneurship education, andthe main results from the (virtual) pilot course on entrepreneurship, as organizedby Universidad Nacional de Educaci¨®n a Distancia (UNED) in the project CrossBorder Virtual Entrepreneurship (CBVE). This CBVE project has been co-fundedby the Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Commission under theErasmus strand: Cooperation between Universities and Enterprises. %K Flexible %K Open and Distance Education %K Entrepreneurship %K Virtual Business Planning %U http://cscjournals.org/csc/manuscript/Journals/IJBRM/volume1/Issue3/IJBRM-27.pdf
