With the acceleration of globalization, innovation and entrepreneurship have become important driving forces for promoting socio-economic development. This article compares and analyzes the innovation and entrepreneurship education in business schools in China, the United States, and France, explores the advantages and characteristics of each country in entrepreneurship education, and draws inspiration from them. American business schools focus on establishing a sound innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem, emphasizing the combination of theory and practice, and providing rich policy support and financial guarantees; France focuses on interdisciplinary integration and the cultivation of an international perspective, emphasizing students' global competitiveness. China has made some progress in innovation and entrepreneurship education, but still faces challenges in practical orientation and ecological environment construction. This article points out that Chinese business schools can learn from the practical education model and government policy support in the United States, combined with France's internationalization concept, innovate and develop entrepreneurship education systems that are suitable for local characteristics, and provide support for cultivating more entrepreneurial talents with innovative thinking and practical abilities.
