Research design, approach and method: The empirical analysis of the study is cross-sectional, based on the data from the primary survey. Correlation and regression analysis was used for hypothesis testing. Main findings: The results indicated that human capital aspects have no significant relationship with entrepreneurial activity. Implication of the study: This empirical study extends the current knowledge on the effect of human capital aspects on entrepreneurship activities in a unique, culturally diverse country. like South Africa.
