Summary/Abstract: Upon entering into the information phase of development, new trends in changing professional and social structures and cultural habits will become more and more prominent. They will be a consequence of the increasing automation and robotisation processes in production, service and management activities. This will lead to a gradual reduction in the size of employment and abolition of many professions. At the same time, there will be an increasing demand for staff with new professional skills (technical, organisational, management) and solving of new social and cultural problems. This affects the increasing role of education, among others in the field of entrepreneurship, and preparing individuals and society for new civilization challenges. This is accompanied by the emergence of new premises and tendencies of socio-economic and cultural development, and the need to act to accelerate development processes that have been discussed in the article. The final part presents the opinions of entrepreneurs regarding the functioning of companies.
