Abstract The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping entrepreneurship, particularly within academic incubator centers where student-led startups are emerging as significant contributors to innovation. The study investigates student entrepreneurs’ awareness, perception, and usage of AI tools in incubator centers in Bangalore. With a structured questionnaire administered to 128 student entrepreneurs, the research evaluates the relationship between students’ AI awareness and tool usage, the perceived impact of AI on entrepreneurial success, and how accessibility and affordability influence attitudes toward future AI integration. Findings reveal a strong correlation between AI awareness and usage, with AI users reporting enhanced decision-making and greater perceived startup success. The study also highlights that students’ favourable perceptions of AI accessibility significantly influence their willingness to adopt AI in future ventures. These insights emphasize the critical role of AI readiness in academic entrepreneurship and call for policy and educational frameworks that strengthen AI fluency among students in incubator ecosystems.
