Description
Digital entrepreneurship (DE) leverages internet services for business and financial gain. This study reviews past research, highlighting trends and gaps. Using the POWER framework and PRISMA techniques, 733 articles were analysed with VOSViewer and manual text analysis. Key findings include 2023 having the most publications, the UK leading in published articles, the journal Technological Forecasting for Social Change having the highest impact, and A. Ghezzi being the most influential author. Trending topics are entrepreneurs, digital entrepreneurship, and sustainability. Emerging themes include digital entrepreneurship ecosystems, opportunities for women and education, entrepreneurial funding, government adoption, and digital technologies. Future research should focus on entrepreneurial education, AI innovations, digital venture performance, and IoT adoption. Frameworks like lean start-up, business model innovation, and value creation can enhance DE performance, with further exploration encouraged by the identified future research agenda.
