In Nigeria, hearing impaired people face immense socio-economic difficulties. Due to communication barriers, employers find hiring even those who have completed their education difficult. In light of this, most of them undergo vocational training to acquire vocational skills, hoping they will be meaningfully engaged in job activities to enhance their economic lives. Many hearing-impaired people who possess vocational skills hardly gain employment, and those who have started a business venture or enterprise hardly thrive. The present study investigated entrepreneurship development among hearing impaired people in Rivers State, Nigeria. The study, guided by three research questions, adopted a case study, using interviews and focus group discussions to collect data. The study participants comprised 38 persons. The study's findings showed that communication, building relationships, skillfulness, technology usage, and the ability of relatives to provide support were vital for success in self-employment. It was found that very little has been done by way of activities conducted to develop entrepreneurship for self-employment among hearing impaired students. Furthermore, educational level, medium of vocational training, gender, and family background in entrepreneurship contributed to developing entrepreneurship competencies among the study group. Government intervention, among others, was recommended.
