Abstract
This paper analyses the current situation in entrepreneurship education in Kazakhstan and reveals the existence of significant gaps. The authors used research findings as well as previous studies to highlight the need to reconsider the public policy in entrepreneurship and government regulation in this relatively new field. The study recommends an approach based on “Network Governance” to ensure favourable conditions for building an effective entrepreneurial ecosystem in the country. Implementation of principles of Network Governance is intended to bring together all stakeholders, including state and local governments, education, business and civil society to develop a comprehensive system of entrepreneurship education.
