A Systematic Literature Review on Technology Entrepreneurship Extracted From International High Level Journals and a Prospect on TE

The combination of S&T and industry is accelerated in nowadays. Lying in the process, technology entrepreneurship (TE) is regarded as the most outstanding driver that drives the upgrading and optimizing of the industrial structure. Consequently, it has attracted increasingly attention both from industry and academia. However, the new knowledge of TE research is fragmented and widely distributed due to the interdisciplinary trait. Most importantly, it lacks a systematic discussion of the field. To meet the gap, we examined 241 articles published in top ranked international journals over the past 47 years. Based on the bibliometric, we reviewed the literatures and synthesized existing researches into a comprehensive framework. Finally, we proposed some suggestions for future research in this field.
