Abstract

Despite the importance of review articles in entrepreneurship, specific guidance to authors remains limited. Alongside JBV's rolling annual review issue, we provide authors practical tips for preparing review articles. Building on widely accepted principles employed in general management review articles, we tailor our guidance to the “entrepreneurship” way of writing review articles in entrepreneurship. Specifically, we call on authors to write bold, broad, and rigorous reviews that exemplify JBV's mission to publish and disseminate high-quality entrepreneurship research.
