Abstract

With the rapid development of digital technologies, upgrading innovation and entrepreneurship education in the digital era has become a critical driver for cultivating university students’innovation and entrepreneurship capabilities. This paper explores the significance and core logic of digital empowerment in enhancing these capabilities, analyzes the challenges under digital empowerment, and constructs a practical pathway for digitally empowered innovation and entrepreneurship education. A four-dimensional enhancement framework is proposed: “restructuring educational models, integrating resource platforms, optimizing practical scenarios, and innovating evaluation mechanisms.” The study finds that digital technologies significantly improve students’ innovative thinking, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and achievement transformation by breaking spatial-temporal constraints, optimizing resource allocation, and deepening practical engagement.
