Abstract

Over the past decade, the rise of shared spaces such as coworking spaces, makerspaces, and incubators, collectively known as Entrepreneurial Spaces, has significantly shaped scholarly discourse and entrepreneurial activities. Within these spaces, sharing is paramount, as it fundamentally shapes the dynamics of collaboration, innovation, resource utilization, and the distribution of knowledge, skills, and resources among entrepreneurs. As these spaces evolve, the complexity of sharing mechanisms - ranging from simple resource sharing to complex knowledge and skill exchanges - increased. To address the conceptual inconsistencies of entrepreneurial spaces and understand the dynamics of sharing and exchange within them, we analyzed 68 articles on entrepreneurial spaces.
