Abstract

The concept of digital entrepreneurial ecosystems (DEEs) has been developed to systemically analyze entrepreneurship in the digital age. Research on DEEs is, however, still dispersed, and there exists ambiguity in this relevant field. With the aim of creating a more comprehensive understanding of DEEs, we conduct a systematic literature review that outlines the current state of research and consolidates the literature at the intersection of digital entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial ecosystems. Since DEEs have been explored from different perspectives and given the adoption of various attributes, we propose a conceptual framework presenting a set of characterizations corresponding to principal ecosystem attributes. By offering a range of characteristics, our framework provides an inclusive picture of the different possible types of DEEs, offering promising avenues for future research.
