The ambience where young people can be stimulated to start their own business is not developed enough in Serbia. Possible solutions can be education and encouragement of the young to start and perform their own business. In this study, analyses on the necessity of implementing a modern enterprise concept on the territory of the Republic of Serbia with a special attention to the role of young people and the opportunities of their involvement in enterprise activities was carried out. The results of three researches, carried out in 2008, 2009 and 2010 among Serbian students are compared and presented in this paper.
