Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to assess and compare the entrepreneurial potential of students in the aspect of family entrepreneurship based on the results of own research. The article uses descriptive statistics and nonparametric statistics, which allowed to compare the entrepreneurial orientation of students from families with operating family business and students who have no experience with family business. On the basis of the research conducted on a group of 238 students, it turned out that in both groups higher entrepreneurial intentions are shown by men, but in general respondents who do not have experience with family business more often want to set up their own company. In addition, research has shown that in the surveyed groups other characteristics that determine entrepreneurial intentions affect a greater willingness to start a business.
