“…There are more research clusters, more sub-themes introduced, heterogeneity and excellent prospects for growth and evolution by combining various concepts of strategy, management and entrepreneurship with IE in order to further enrich this field. Our results align with those of Etemad (2021b) and Coviello and Jones (2004).…”

“…Driven by the contributions of Zahra (2021) and Etemad (2021a, b), the situation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic in IE seems to have fuelled the debate between scholars. Several populist, nationalist and protectionist movements emerged during these two years of the pandemic, causing the closure of borders and severe restriction of cross-border mobility, reducing the flow of international transactions and making international activities difficult.…”

“…The reasons for this exclusion relate to the general range and nature of these articles, making it difficult to specifically integrate them into the four thematic clusters. Thus, we hereby exclude the studies of Baier-Fuentes et al (2019), Coviello and Jones (2004), Etemad (2021b), Etemad et al (2021), Głodowska (2019), Jones et al (2011), Kraus (2011), Martin andJavalgi (2018), McDougall andOviatt (2000), Servantie et al (2016) and Zucchella (2021). In turn, the studies by Keupp and Gassman (2009), Allen (2016) and Etemad (2017b), due to how they portray IE sub-themes, were integrated into the thematic clusters and integrated into the final study sample.…”

PurposeInternational entrepreneurship (IE) has received a considerable amount of attention in the recent decades as a result of globalization enabling access to new international markets and business opportunities. Despite the growing increase in academic publications, IE still faces certain inconsistencies, with doubts remaining as regards its boundaries and the thematic groups making up the field. The purpose of this article is to systematically analyse the IE, mapping the intellectual territory and the evolution of the field.Design/methodology/approach Indexed to Web of Science( WoS) database until 2021, from 52 journals, 130 articles were selected, applying content analyses techniques to identify the main research lines.FindingsThe results reveal that IE presents four conceptual themes/clusters: (1) international business networks and opportunities; (2) institutional environments; (3) the characteristics and motivations of entrepreneurs; and (4) internationalisation drivers and processes. Extant analysis show that IE has progressed immensely, concentrating a good diversity of subtopics and research trends. An integrative framework bringing together 27 years of publications and 67 future research lines, detailed by cluster, were also presented in this study to improve understanding and guide future studies.Originality/valueThis review makes a broad contribution to the IE literature, assisting in consolidating the academic field, expanding and complementing the results of previous theoretical–conceptual studies. We reflect and individually discuss the state of the art of the four streams that characterize IE to identify key themes, points of convergence and advance new subfields.

“…Interest in the sharing economy was further heightened because of growth opportunities, new markets, digital disruptions, and Covid-19–related changes (see Chandrasekaran et al 2022 ; Chang and Sokol 2022 ; Chowdhury and Audretsch 2021 ; Etemad 2019a , b , 2021a , b ). The sharing economy and CC-based systems remain to be distinct as well as intertwined because of consumers’ changing lifestyles and consumption patterns (Kim and Jin 2020 ; Möhlmann 2015 ; Viglia 2020 ).…”

The purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss the topics of sharing economy and collaborative consumption (CC) within the domains of global entrepreneurial opportunities, strategic issues, and emerging online businesses. Both topics remain immensely rich and intertwined because of their interdisciplinary perspectives and multifaceted issues. The sharing economy and CC-based digital platforms clearly support and complement today’s business models, corporate expansion, and entrepreneurial growth. The sharing economy and CC models continue to grow yet can be disruptive in international entrepreneurship. The paper investigates the sharing economy as well as CC in ten sectors (73 firms) from the perspective of “commercial sharing systems” (Lamberton and Rose 2012 , p. 109). Findings of the paper reveal that the two topics distinctly remain interconnected when dealing with their business models, entrepreneurial initiatives, and consumers in global markets. The work systematically lays the foundation for future research in the international entrepreneurship literature and its related areas. Companies that pursue the areas of sharing-based systems tend to be inherently innovative and venturesome in their business models and digital platforms. The paper also provides a research agenda and managerial implications of this timely discussion that continues to grow in international entrepreneurship.
