Abstract

Digital entrepreneurship occupies a primary place in international scientific research, especially in the current context of technological evolution. The purpose of this paper is to adopt a mixed methodology of systematic literature review and bibliometric, network and content analysis based on a number of 1680 papers identified on the Web of Science (WOS). The results obtained are represented by the construction of a research agenda in which information is recorded that provides a broad perspective on the evolution of the concept of digital entrepreneurship. We consider that this research paper can be a potential tool or a starting point for further research studies.
