Abstract:

 Today entrepreneurship is major leading power of economic development. In this study, which is conducted to illuminate obstacles in front of the development of entrepreneurship, relationships among cultural factors and entrepreneurship intention and partnership culture are investigated. Under the framework of the study, primary data is collected from students of Kırıkkale University. Gathered data is analyzed statistically and descriptive information is produced. As a result it is understood that entrepreneurial intention and partnership culture is related with sub dimensions of culture. It is realized that factors of “long term orientation”, “uncertainty avoidance”, “collaboration understanding” and “trust” is positively related with entrepreneurship. It is determined that these variables are also related with partnership culture. On the other hand, it is seen that power distance and masculinity is not related with entrepreneurship intention and partnership culture. At last, findings are evaluated and recommendations for public managers and educational institutions are developed.
