In this line and in recent decades, entrepreneurship has been proposed and emphasized as an important strategy for sustainable rural development and located at the focus of development thinkers and communities as well as the agenda of world states and societies. Accordingly, having applied a survey design, quantitative approach, descriptive-analytical method, and questionnaires as the research instruments, the present study investigates the role of entrepreneurship in the sustainable rural development of Komijan county in terms of sustainability dimensions, namely economical, social and environmental.
