Abstract: Leading organizations use corporate entrepreneurship as a key growth strategy. Many researchers have examined this phenomenon resulting in many publications in top tier journals. To understand the current state of the literature and to identify the key gaps, we did a comprehensive review of the papers on corporate entrepreneurship published in leading journals. We found that researchers by and large have used theoretical perspectives namely knowledge-based view, organizational theory, agency theory, entrepreneurial thinking, upper echelons theory, leadership theory, structural contingency, behavioral theory, network theory, and resource-based view to examine this phenomenon. Attention based view presents a theoretical model to understand the behavior of an organization from the attentional pattern of its decision makers and hence we found a need to examine corporate entrepreneurship from this perspective. Based on our assessment, we have identified some antecedents of corporate entrepreneurship and developed some propositions. We have presented a conceptual framework depicting the propositions we have developed.
