Abstract: Abstract Although startups' importance as "innovation drivers" and a resource for leveraging competitiveness has been established, these startups face difficulties in being sustained and continuing to survive, especially in emerging countries. These difficulties added to the changes to which startups are subjected, considering the context of industry 4.0, can make survival even more challenging. From this perspective, this paper aims to present a typology for startups 4.0. To achieve the proposed objective, we performed a systematic literature review, which covers three stages: (1) planning the review, (2) conducting the review, and (3) dissemination of knowledge. We screened 2434 studies and included 65 to synthesize. Our primary result is a typology with four classes, namely, “Strategy”, “Startups”, “Culture” and, “Methods”. This study's main contributions are (1) the methodological framework, (2) the set of recommendations that can facilitate achieving superior performance, and (3) future research guidelines. From the discussions presented, we believe that this research can help with elaborating hypotheses for developing new quantitative studies to empirically verify the impact of the proposed recommendations, considering the smart industry's advent.
