Abstract

Purpose

An increased interest in inequality and entrepreneurship has led to little consensus on how to define inequality from different perspectives based on an emerging economy point of view. This article aims to discuss how the precise nature of inequality differs centered on how it is developing in emerging economies.

Design/methodology/approach

A review of the current literature on inequality, entrepreneurship and emerging economies was conducted to focus on understanding the main factors. This resulted in the identification of six main types of inequality in entrepreneurship (social, digital, economic, cultural, geographic and environmental) and offers specific suggestions for future research.

Findings

Inequality in emerging economies can be differentiated based on type and level of entrepreneurial development as well as integrated into a conceptual framework that integrates different ways to measure the concept.

Originality/value

This paper focuses on different types of inequality in entrepreneurship from an emerging economy point of view that offers a unique way to understand country differences. In addition, theoretical and methodological directions for future research are outlined, which consolidates current research and extending research on inequality, entrepreneurship and emerging economies.
