The AI’s role in life has increased significantly since the initial introduction of ChatGPT. This trend has drawn the attention of scholars to numerous topics and the entrepreneurship education is one of them. There is already research on the potential of AI in entrepreneurship education and the current paper aims at identifying benefits of AI for entrepreneurship education alongside with potential risks and challenges of its application. The results show that AI can contribute to more personalized education with real environment simulations. Alongside it can improve the assessment. However, challenges like date security, overdependence on AI and AI biases, need to be addressed. The findings identify the need for future examination of specific cases and may contribute to the development of regulations, ethical consideration and development of practices in implementing AI in entrepreneurship education.

The paper presents the conceptual framework of an international project focused on the development of entrepreneurship culture at academic level. Academic entrepreneurship is seen as a means of commercialization, which is the transformation of knowledge into products, processes, and organization and their contribution to economic growth and innovation. In this regard the project is aimed to explore hidden strengths of academic entrepreneurship in detail and in various aspects oriented to students, academic staff, and businesspeople. The project will suggest training materials in line with the changes in the economic environment in recent years to create both entrepreneurial culture and skills to start own business under the supervision by academic entrepreneurs.
