Upgrading platforms for innovation and entrepreneurial incubation poses several challenges, especially in improving connotations. In this context, this study aimed to determine the difficulties of connotation upgrading in innovation and entrepreneurship incubation platforms in a higher vocation college in Henan Province, China, during the School Year 2023-2024. Data needed for this study were collected from a sample of 253 teacher-respondents using a self-made survey questionnaire that has passed the rigorous tests of validity and reliability. Data gathered showed a high level of difficulties among teacher-respondents in connotation upgrading of innovation and entrepreneurship incubation platforms in higher vocational colleges. The ensuing analysis likewise showed no significant difference in the difficulties of connotation upgrading innovation and entrepreneurship incubation platforms in higher vocational colleges when teacher respondents were grouped according to demographics. The results of the study call for higher education institutions to foster innovation and entrepreneurship by putting those recommendations into practice in the conclusion section and giving students the tools and resources they need to thrive in the cutthroat world of contemporary business.
