Abstract: The present study explores the link between entrepreneurial learning and students' entrepreneurial intentions, and examines the role of characteristics of national culture in this relationship. It contributes to the existing literature in the field by addressing the call for focusing on learning rather than teaching entrepreneurship and contextualisation of entrepreneurship knowledge. The hypotheses are tested using a dataset of 84,453 students from 28 countries, collected as part of the Global University Entrepreneurial Spirit Students' Survey (GUESSS) project in 2013-2014. Results reveal a positive relationship between entrepreneurial learning and students' entrepreneurial intentions. However, this relationship was found to be moderated by different dimensions of national culture, being stronger in individualistic cultures and weaker in high uncertainty avoidance societies.
