Abstract

Objectives Entrepreneurial spirit is considered a vital resource for the economy in various countries where entre‑preneurs found businesses. It is thus crucial to analyze the relationship between entrepreneurship and global crises, as entrepreneurial initiatives can be afected by the economic instability that crises generate. This study uses biblio‑metric analysis to explore the topic of entrepreneurship in situations of global crisis. Theoretical framework Starting from the structure of bibliometric analysis, we analyzed 1111 documents retrieved from the Scopus and WoS databases for the years 2000–2023. Methodology We characterized the documents studied and analyzed citations, co-citations, co-words, and authorship using VOSviewer software. Results/implications Our analysis produced results on networks among authors and countries. We also obtained signifcant results on the structure of the feld studied and its projection for the future. Finally, we propose implica‑tions and opportunities for future lines of research.
