The quality of regional entrepreneurial ecosystems has a positive influence on the occurrence of productive entrepreneurship, often proxied through innovative start-ups. However, existing research only looks at entrepreneurial ecosystems in isolation and does not account for the influence of neighboring entrepreneurial ecosystems. We study whether neighboring entrepreneurial ecosystems influence the prevalence of productive entrepreneurship in a focal region and whether this effect is positive, a ‘borrowed size’ effect, or negative, an ‘agglomeration shadow’ effect. We use spatial regression analyses and find clear evidence that high-quality neighbors cast agglomeration shadows, or in this case, ‘ecosystem shadows'. This suggests that regions lose entrepreneurial opportunities to neighbors with higher quality EEs. Our study is the first to study spillover effects between regional entrepreneurial ecosystems. Policymakers can use our findings to choose where to strategically deploy their resources to foster a more entrepreneurial society.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38078,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing Insights","volume":"23 ","pages":"Article e00533"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143816080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In celebration of this anniversary, we take stock of what have been published in the journal to reflect the past and chart the future of the journal. By treating journal articles' <em>texts as corpus data</em> amenable for computations, we embraced a computational social sciences methodology called <em>Bert Topic Modeling</em> (BERTopic) to detect the <em>latent</em> topics of articles (n = 443) published in the journal (2014–2024). The analyses identified 28 main topics or themes that dominated the journal's agenda and the emergence of new topics, with varying number of distinct topics across the years, reflecting both the persistence of traditional research themes and the rise of novel research agendas. The results suggest a vibrant, heterogeneous, and growing maturity of entrepreneurship research throughout the decade in the journal. Spatial analysis further revealed the thematic clusters and intellectual structure of the journal's research themes. We end this article with a reflection on what the findings mean for the field of entrepreneurship and suggest avenues for future research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38078,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing Insights","volume":"23 ","pages":"Article e00525"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143791594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, it underscores the <em>cultural</em>-, <em>ideological</em>-, <em>otherness</em>-, and <em>role and norm heterodoxies</em> evident in informal cross border trade. Third, the paper describes four paradoxes - <em>bribery</em>, <em>empowerment</em>, <em>regulation</em>, and <em>visibility</em> - which maintain the heterodox entrepreneurial ecosystem in balance. With this, the conceptual paper opens a new line of enquiry on <em>heterodox entrepreneurial ecosystems, defined as juxtapositions of actors, factors, ideologies, and places facilitating productive entrepreneurship through balancing paradoxical tensions</em>.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38078,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing Insights","volume":"23 ","pages":"Article e00530"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143760593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Entrepreneurship and biodiversity loss are intertwined: entrepreneurs—especially in the primary sector—are both causing and suffering from this loss in biodiversity. However, little is known about the biodiversity-entrepreneurship nexus, in particular, how primary sector entrepreneurs perceive the negative effects of their activities on nature and biodiversity loss. Addressing this glaring and policy-relevant research gap, we empirically investigate how 3,469 entrepreneurs across 28 European countries perceive threats to biodiversity. Despite their close dependence on nature, our multilevel analyses show that primary sector entrepreneurs perceive activities related to the primary sector (e.g., intensive farming, intensive forestry, and overfishing) as less threatening to biodiversity loss than entrepreneurs in other sectors. However, this difference diminishes in countries with stronger reliance on the primary sector, suggesting a nuanced interplay between economic dependencies and biodiversity threat perception. Our study contributes to research on biodiversity and entrepreneurship, identifies crucial future research areas, and offers policy implications that can help societies leverage biodiversity entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurship more generally, as a vehicle to combat biodiversity loss.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38078,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Venturing Insights","volume":"23 ","pages":"Article e00529"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143739514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
