Abstract

The Belt and Road Initiative is a very ambitious project started by the Chinese Government with a partnership of 152 countries. The countries associated with the project are benefited at various levels with lots of challenges in terms of funds. The present study selected a sample of five countries in Asia associated with the project and has strategic importance. Five countries such as China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong were considered as samples for collection of data on perceived opportunities, perceived capabilities, fear of failure and entrepreneurial intentions after the year 2013, when The Belt & Road Initiative was announced. The results indicate that perceived opportunities and perceived capabilities affect entrepreneurial intentions positively, whereas fear of failure affects entrepreneurial intentions negatively.
