The government's efforts to develop the concept of smart cities are aimed at overcoming problems in urban areas, which still face a number of obstacles. As a result, public perceptions of the reputation of smart cities are low. The low reputation of smart cities is related to the lack of entrepreneurship education and may also be related to the problem of partnership with relevant stakeholders.
