Abstract

Knowledge spillovers and entrepreneurial ecosystems are amongst the most popular emerging research topic areas due to their theoretical and practical relevance. The aim of this article is to discuss the reason for embedding a knowledge management perspective within the entrepreneurial ecosystem literature. This enables an identification of the types of knowledge relevant for entrepreneurship and how to cultivate an entrepreneurial ecosystem. By focusing on the intersection of knowledge and entrepreneurship within an ecosystem environment, it enables a more holistic understanding of the diversity required to enable creativity to develop. Thereby leading to a more progressive theory of knowledge spillovers that embeds a more blatant ecosystem view. This helps to move the literature forward and provides new ways of thinking about knowledge spillovers and entrepreneurial ecosystems. The articles conclude by summarising the articles in the special journal issue and provides suggestions for future research.
