Abstract

Despite being received increasing attention from academic scholars, there have yet any review study on the topic of start-up success. This work fulfills this research gap by investigating 1554 start-up success documents collected from Scopus dataset between 1981 and 2019. Using bibliometric analysis, we reveal that the topic of start-up success only receives more attention from academic scholars since 2011 onwards. Regarding geographical distribution, the US, Germany, and the UK are the three countries contributing the highest number of start-up success related documents. Besides, it’s revealed that 305 (or 19.6%) start-up success documents were published in the top 20 journals. The co-author analysis found that the research groups of start-up success are still small and dispersed and there was a lack of continuity in the research. The science mapping identified six main topics of start-up success, including: (1) Business in General, (2) Start-up Ecosystem, (iii) Academic Start-up, (iv) Drivers of Start-up Success, (v) Resources for start-up, and (vi) Start-up Model. The study’s findings provide implications for stakeholders, academic

1981-2019年“创业成功”研究的文献计量学分析

尽管越来越受到学术学者的关注，但目前还没有关于创业成功的综述性研究。本研究通过调查1981年至2019年从Scopus数据集中收集的1554份创业成功文件，填补了这一研究空白。通过文献计量分析，我们发现自2011年以来，创业成功的话题才受到学术学者的更多关注。在地理分布方面，美国、德国和英国是提供创业成功相关文件最多的三个国家。此外，在排名前20的期刊上发表了305篇创业成功论文，占19.6%。共同作者的分析发现，创业成功的研究群体仍然很小，而且分散，研究缺乏连续性。科学地图确定了创业成功的六个主要主题，包括:(1)一般商业，(2)创业生态系统，(iii)学术创业，(iv)创业成功的驱动因素，(v)创业资源，以及(vi)创业模式。该研究的发现为利益相关者提供了学术启示
