摘要

创业实验是企业家设计、实施和解释因果关系测试的过程，目的是学习和减少与新企业发展相关的不确定性、风险和怀疑。研究表明，创业实验对创业之旅至关重要。然而，这项研究仍然是碎片化的，导致概念模糊。本文对1985年至2024年关于创业实验的学术文献进行了回顾和综合。在此过程中，我们将这些文献综合为一个定义、概念基础和一个综合的理论框架。我们总结了未来的研究议程，探索更多的细微差别，偶然性和社会文化动态。

Entrepreneurial Experimentation: Conceptual Foundations, Integrative Theoretical Framework, and Research Agenda

Entrepreneurial experimentation is the process by which entrepreneurs design, conduct, and interpret tests of cause-and-effect relationships in order to learn and reduce uncertainty, risk, and doubt associated with new venture development. Research suggests entrepreneurial experimentation is essential to the entrepreneurial journey. Yet, this research remains fragmented, resulting in conceptual ambiguity. In this article, we review and synthesize the scholarly literature on entrepreneurial experimentation from 1985 to 2024. In so doing, we synthesize this literature into a definition, conceptual foundations, and an integrative theoretical framework. We conclude with a future research agenda that explores more nuance, contingencies, and sociocultural dynamics.
