Entrepreneurial intention and sustainability: an analysis through bibliometric networks

Abstract

The aim of this paper was to analyze international scientific production on entrepreneurial intention and sustainability. Bibliometric research was carried out according to bibliometric laws (Lotka, Bradford and Zipf). In addition, content analysis was used to identify the main methodological approaches adopted. From the 76 documents analyzed, emerging topics related to entrepreneurial intention and sustainability were found: entrepreneurial education and gender; sustainable practices; innovation and personality traits; intention, sustainable entrepreneurship, and social entrepreneurship. These results suggest the development of research that addresses the context of social, economic and sustainable entrepreneurship. This research is relevant for providing reflections and knowledge for future research in the field of entrepreneurship, especially in relation to the alignment of entrepreneurial intention and sustainability.
