Discovery and Creation of Entrepreneurial Opportunities: Understanding How New Ventures Begin
Entrepreneurship begins with opportunity. Whether launching a startup, introducing a new product, or reshaping an existing industry, entrepreneurial action is fundamentally driven by the perception that something valuable can be created. Yet one of the most enduring and intellectually stimulating debates in entrepreneurship research revolves around a deceptively simple question: Are opportunities discovered, or are they created? This question is far more than an academic curi


The Promise of Entrepreneurship as a Field of Research: Why It Matters More Than Ever
Entrepreneurship has long been associated with bold founders, disruptive startups, and stories of extraordinary success. Yet behind these narratives lies a deeper and increasingly influential academic discipline. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a critical focus for entrepreneurs, driving the development of AI-based startups to address challenges in various sectors. Despite increased innovation from data availability and supportive digitization legislation, some in


Strategic Entrepreneurship in the World of AI: Redefining Innovation, Advantage, and Decision-Making

It has become a central force reshaping industries, business models, and competitive dynamics. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a critical focus for entrepreneurs, driving the development of AI-based startups to address challenges in various sectors. Despite increased innovation from data availability and supportive digitization legislation, some i


Clarifying the Entrepreneurial Orientation Construct: Understanding Strategy, Behavior, and Firm Performance
Entrepreneurial orientation has emerged as one of the most influential constructs in entrepreneurship and strategic management research. It offers a framework for understanding how firms behave entrepreneurially, how they pursue opportunities, and how their strategic posture influences performance. Despite its widespread adoption, entrepreneurial orientation remains conceptually complex and occasionally contested. Scholars continue to debate its dimensions, measurement, theor


Toward a Theory of Entrepreneurial Cognition: How Entrepreneurs Think, Decide, and Act Under Uncertainty
Entrepreneurship has long been studied through the lenses of economics, strategy, and innovation. Yet beneath every venture creation, opportunity pursuit, and risk-taking decision lies something more fundamental: human thought. Entrepreneurs do not simply respond to markets; they interpret, imagine, construct, and act upon their perceptions of reality. A theory of entrepreneurial cognition seeks to explain how entrepreneurs think, how they make decisions in ambiguous environm


Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy and Business Growth: How Belief, Capability, and Action Drive Sustainable Entrepreneurial Success
In the last decade, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to promote entrepreneurial opportunities has grown, providing a strong platform for digitally enabled entrepreneurship. AI is advancing the progress of entrepreneurship by redefining and reshaping business and strategy and is a key element in enabling competitiveness and the ability of entrepreneurs to navigate uncertain environments ( Olan, et al., 2024). Entrepreneurship is often discussed in terms of ideas, fundin


Entrepreneurial Strategy and Business Performance: How Vision, Execution, and Strategic Discipline Shape Long-Term Value Creation
Entrepreneurship is often romanticized as the triumph of bold ideas and visionary founders. Yet history shows that ideas alone rarely produce lasting success. What separates high-performing entrepreneurial firms from those that stagnate or fail is not inspiration, but strategy. Entrepreneurial strategy provides the connective tissue between opportunity and outcome. It translates uncertainty into structured action and ambition into measurable business performance. In the last


The Entrepreneurial Process Model: A Dynamic Framework for Opportunity Creation, Evaluation, and Venture Evolution
The entrepreneurial process model represents one of the most influential frameworks in entrepreneurship scholarship, offering a systematic explanation of how new ventures emerge, evolve, and, in some cases, fail. Rather than portraying entrepreneurship as a single act of innovation or risk-taking, the model conceptualizes it as an unfolding process shaped by opportunity perception, individual cognition, resource constraints, institutional contexts, and market dynamics. This p


Entrepreneurial Innovation Through AI Tools: Automation Leverages In Business Innovation
Entrepreneurial innovation has always been constrained by access to resources. Capital, labor, and time shaped what founders could build and how fast they could move. Artificial intelligence is changing this equation by introducing a new kind of leverage that operates alongside financial capital. The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has made it an indispensable tool for businesses, transforming how executives make decisions. Academic research has suggested th


A Quiet AI Revolution in Small Business
Artificial intelligence is often portrayed as a tool reserved for tech giants with massive budgets and dedicated strategy teams. In reality, some of the most inventive uses of AI are happening far from corporate headquarters and innovation labs. Small-business owners, lacking formal road maps and specialized departments, are experimenting their way into AI adoption. Instead of elaborate strategies, they rely on trial and error, practical need, and intuition. The result is a q
