  • Francesca Sanguineti

Abstract

With an academic publication annual growth rate of fourteen percent and increasing attention rising from the practitioners’ world, the entrepreneurial exit field is gaining increasing popularity. Our study describes the state of the art of the entrepreneurial exit literature, with a focus at the individual level of analysis. Through a bibliometric review, we investigate the evolution of the publication activity, the most representative contributors and contributions, and the trending topics of the articles in the field. We highlight the main researched themes and identify potential avenues for future research.
