Two decades of research on digitalization, entrepreneurship, and internationalization: What foundations do they provide for research on digital entrepreneurial internationalization?

Abstract

The ongoing digital transformation is influencing international entrepreneurship. Current knowledge on that transformation is scattered across various fields. The current research comprises a systematic literature review and a thematic mapping covering the areas of digital internationalization , digital entrepreneurship, and digital entrepreneurial internationalization . Our initial sample consisted of 1138 articles published in 64 journals over 24 years. We contribute to research in the field by mapping out digital entrepreneurial internationalization as an emergent research area, suggesting avenues to advance its theoretical foundations and methodological stances, and analysing the characteristics and various contexts permeating the area.
