Abstract: Digital technologies are transforming the entrepreneurial landscape and enabling the democratization of entrepreneurship. The ongoing advancement of digital technologies has transformed the business environment and created a wide range of opportunities that have led to new ways to pursue entrepreneurship. This paper highlights the different definitions of digital entrepreneurship proposed by various scholars and discusses the impact of digital technologies on academic entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship as a field of practice, and entrepreneurship research. The paper introduces three accepted manuscripts and shows how they contribute to filling the gaps in knowledge in the field. Furthermore, the paper proposes a research agenda focusing on the impact of digital technologies on the field of entrepreneurship. The review highlights the need for future research to investigate the effects of digital technologies on the entrepreneurial phenomenon and to explore how the digital economy might affect our conceptualization of entrepreneurship in its nature and shifting contours.
