Innovation and entrepreneurship: an approach based on bibliometric analysis

[EN] The purpose of this article is to investigate the literature that relates innovation and entrepreneurship for its recognized contribution to the economy. In this article a bibliometric analysis of the research on this topic extracted from the main collection of the Web of Science (WoS) database from 2000 to 2020 is carried out, obtaining 1785 documents. The main of the bibliometric method is to perform, through BibExcel and VOSviewer software, a trend analysis, a study of the general and annual structure of citations, to present the advances associated with the main authors, journals and most relevant countries and to analyze their evolution over time and identify key research topics to contribute to the development of this field. In addition, this study will analyze co-citations, bibliographic couplings, co-occurrences and co-authorships, among others. The results show that the publication trend increases considerably from 2010, and it is, in the last years 2019 and 2020, when the highest production of articles has been registered. In relation to the most publishing countries, the United States, China, England and Spain are among the most representative. It is also found that the most influential journals in this field are Small Business Economics and Journal of Business Research. This systematic mapping of the field helps to illustrate the evolution of research over time, identify areas of current interest for use in theoretical and empirical frameworks, and provide, thanks to its findings, a solid roadmap for future research by detecting potential directions.Aparisi Torrijo, S.
