European experience shows that formal education does not help entrepreneurship. The aim of our contribution is to highlight the importance of introducing education to develop entrepreneurial skills in the education process. In the theoretical part, we will outline the need for innovation in entrepreneurship education, leading to the promotion of entrepreneurship education and the development of entrepreneurial skills. In the practical part, we are evaluating the questionnaire survey for the identification of entrepreneurial potential. Our paper presents the results of the survey, where the respondents were students of the Intstitute of Technology and Business (Faculty of Corporate Stategy) in České Budějovice. The Independence Test was used to evaluate the three questionnaire survey questions. A weak dependence between changing daily routines has been identified as a strong motive for setting up a business and willingness to devote itself to setting up a business. The central dependence between the willingness to spend on setting up your business and the willingness to work long without adequate sleep. It has been shown that changing the routine as a strong motivation for setting up its business is not related to the willingness to work without adequate sleep when needed.
