In recent years, there has been a noticeable trend in the area of education toward including entrepreneurship. This change is a reflection of the rising understanding of the value of giving students—especially prospective teachers—entrepreneurship knowledge and skills. Governments have taken aggressive steps to encourage and instill an entrepreneurial mindset, notably via education since they have realized the significance of entrepreneurship in impacting general well-being. Thus, entrepreneurship has become an increasingly important skill in the education industry, as education professionals are being encouraged to think creatively and identify new opportunities for improvement. This study aims to explore innovative teaching strategies for integrating entrepreneurship into teacher education. To achieve the objectives of the research, the systematic literature review approach was utilized. With the use of some sets of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 7 studies that were found to be adequate and meet the inclusion criteria were selected and used to answer the research questions raised in the study. After applying thematic analysis to the selected papers, several themes that addressed those objectives emerged. It was found that, in keeping with the present trend of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, an appropriate approach through the diversity of creative teaching methodologies in imparting entrepreneurial knowledge to students should be strengthened and emphasised. When imparting entrepreneurial knowledge to pupils, this necessitates greater creativity and innovation on the part of educators, particularly in teacher education. Knowing the fundamentals of entrepreneurship can help instructors create creative plans and encourage pre-service teachers to pursue technological entrepreneurship. Students' interest in entrepreneurship may be stimulated by the range of tactics and exercises used in both official and informal education.
