aims to explore the differences between the factors that affect the
entrepreneurship potential of the Baby Boomers and X, Y, Z generations.

and surveys were used for data collection.

differences in entrepreneurship potential, but not for the other demographics.

thought that, the results of this study will contribute to the literature
relating to the question of “has the next generation better entrepreneurship
potential or not at the time of the study conducted”, since the study for the first
time takes into consideration Z generation.
