We start out with a comprehensive review of 183 articles on IE published in 16 journals over 14 years. From a systematic content analysis of this literature, we develop an organising framework that allows to analyse the field's current status. On the basis of this analysis, we can identify gaps in our understanding of IE and obstacles which stall the further development of IE research. We then develop directions for future research that we think can overcome these gaps and obstacles and promote future theory development.enInternational Entrepreneurshiptheory developmentreview articlejournal article
