Abstract: The purpose of the research is to assess the relationship between youth participation in entrepreneurship promotion initiatives, entrepreneurship, and emigration attitudes. The quantitative test method presented in the article consists of three key parts that have their specifics of evaluation and different methodologies. This method has been used to better understand the similarities and differences between the general global trends and the processes taking place in Lithuania; in terms of youth entrepreneurship, emigration attitudes, and entrepreneurship promotion. A study conducted in the fifth largest region of Lithuania, which has the highest youth unemployment, i.e., Utena Region, did not show a correlation between the analysed elements. The lack of a correlation suggests that while promoting entrepreneurship is a prerequisite for higher entrepreneurship, higher levels of knowledge may not always lead to a greater willingness to start a business.
