Abstract

Due to the ageing population and the changing demographics, mature age or older entrepreneurship is becoming an important area of research within the regional literature. Using a hybrid literature review technique (bibliometrics and content analyses), we explore the literature (963 articles between 1990 and 2021) on the topic of population ageing and entrepreneurship under a regional perspective. After a general overview of the research on entrepreneurship and aging, we find two main streams of research and potential avenues for future study: (i) the role that regions have in entrepreneurship and start-up and (ii) the linkages between population ageing, entrepreneurship and the local and regional context. Finally, the paper recommends several research questions to extend the literature.
