To analyze the data in the qualitative part as coding and quantitative part as structural equations, MaxQDA and Smart PLS 2.0 were used, respectively. Findings of this study showed that underlying factors (such as family, government support, etc.) affect the transfer of entrepreneurial beliefs (p<0.05). As a result, it can be stated that entrepreneurship has an effective role in the growth and development of the country by creating employment, proportional distribution of incomes, reducing social anxiety, exploiting and activating the resources, improving the quality of life, discovering the needs of inventing and developing new goods and services.
