Abstract

Despite scholarly consensus that communication is significant to entrepreneurial organizing, communication research in entrepreneurship is nascent. To advance theory and empirical research, this article presents a systematic review of entrepreneurship studies published in communication journals. Through a comprehensive keyword and literature search, we identified 49 relevant articles published in the past 30 years. Content and computational analyses suggest scholars have studied entrepreneurship in a variety of communication domains and sub-fields, including news and journalism, new media technologies, and social networks. Furthermore, most research has focused on conventional entrepreneurship and the processes supporting it rather than entrepreneurship’s antecedents and/or outcomes. Based on our review, we highlight six areas for future research in the intersection of communication and entrepreneurship: (1) entrepreneurial identity, (2) innovation, (3) social networks, (4) digital technologies, (5) institutions, and (6) entrepreneurship by historically underrepresented and minoritized groups.

回顾过去，展望未来：传播研究中的创业研究系统回顾

尽管学术界一致认为传播对创业组织具有重要意义，但创业中的传播研究却刚刚起步。为了推动理论和实证研究的发展，本文对传播期刊上发表的创业研究进行了系统回顾。通过全面的关键词和文献检索，我们找到了过去 30 年中发表的 49 篇相关文章。内容和计算分析表明，学者们研究了各种传播领域和子领域的创业精神，包括新闻和新闻学、新媒体技术和社交网络。此外，大多数研究集中于传统创业及其支持过程，而非创业的前因及/或结果。根据我们的综述，我们强调了未来传播与创业交叉研究的六个领域：(1) 创业身份，(2) 创新，(3) 社交网络，(4) 数字技术，(5) 机构，(6) 历史上代表性不足和少数群体的创业。
