Therefore Indonesia needs to develop more higher-value-added entrepreneurs. Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) has taken on the responsibility to develop such entrepreneurs. With its strengths in science, technology, art and design, ITB is in good position to play this role. ITB’s School of Business and Management takes a lead in harnessing these strengths to develop a breakthrough MBA Program in Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship. The program was launched in July 2011 and started accepting students in August 2011. This paper explains why creative and cultural-related industries are targeted. Entrepreneurship education issues will be addressed since educating entrepreneurs needs a different approach than a conventional one. A methodology was followed including literature review, benchmarking, site visits and interviews. The results of this development consist of (1) a complete curriculum of MBA Program in Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship and (2) entrepreneurship education ecosystem which supports the curriculum to achieve the program’s goal in developing new entrepreneurs in creative and cultural related industries. © 2012 IEEE..[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Business and management,Entrepreneurship education,Indonesia,Literature reviews,Site visits,Small business,Technology-based[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
