Abstract

Digital entrepreneurship is a technological advancement in infrastructure that creates various prospects for entrepreneurs. New digital enterprise models need attention in society, particularly concerning digital entrepreneurship opportunities, barriers, and success factors. Hence, this study gathers literature on digital entrepreneurship to compile methods and topics discussed by previous authors. Furthermore, this study illustrates research directions indicating opportunities for future scholars to work in this domain. A systematic approach across this study followed methodology and maintained a quality threshold by selecting 35 articles on digital entrepreneurship. Considering conceptual literature, the study identified six streams of digital entrepreneurship such as digital enterprise models, entrepreneurship procedure, strategical platform, ecosystem, entrepreneurship training, and social digital entrepreneurship. Hence, this study determines paths for recent research on digital entrepreneurship through a framework in different areas. Moreover, it also provides research opportunities through research directions to deeply understand the domain of digital entrepreneurship.
