Abstract: Education, or more specific academic education, plays a vital role in the evolution of the society, designing the pathway to the empowerment of people. Beyond transmitting the accumulated knowledge and experience, it helps creating the new knowledge with the active effort and engagement of scholars who constantly challenge the unknown. The educational system has constantly made efforts in order to meet the requirements of the business environment (in terms of teaching specific skills, adjusting the curricula to meet the new labor market needs etc.) and to sustain the aspirations of the working force, as well as the economic growth and general welfare. The purpose of this article is to highlight the role of the higher education system in fostering student’s entrepreneurial spirit and skills in order to meet the requirements of the business environment.
