Abstract

This review article examines the emerging trends in business education to address the rapidly evolving demands of a global, technology-driven economy. The study systematically analyzed 64 research articles from academic databases, of which 28 high-quality studies met the inclusion criteria based on their direct relevance to business education and clear articulation of recent trends. Key findings reveal an increasing integration of digital tools, such as AI and data analytics, alongside blended and adaptive learning models that support personalized education and prepare students for a data-centric workforce. Furthermore, globalization has led to curricular reforms emphasizing global competencies and ethical frameworks aligned with sustainability and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Entrepreneurship education has also gained prominence, with experiential learning models fostering adaptability and innovative thinking essential in volatile business environments. This review highlights both the progress and challenges in implementing these trends, particularly in resource-limited regions. Recommendations include adopting flexible learning infrastructures, emphasizing cultural and ethical competencies, and exploring public-private partnerships to support equitable access to modern educational technologies. These insights serve as a guide for educators, policymakers, and researchers seeking to advance the quality and relevance of business education worldwide.
