Researchers have established a strong link between education and both entrepreneurial intent and entrepreneurial performance. Yet, for some time, and certainly since the 2008 financial crisis, entrepreneurial activity rates have been declining while education levels are at an all-time high and access to entrepreneurship education is ubiquitous as supported by an independent study. Three converging factors are discussed as catalysts to this unfolding paradox– the recession, the growth in size and power of large corporations, and a generational shift. Implications to public policy and higher education are discussed.
