Abstract
The present paper aims to provide a comprehensive approach to the senior entrepreneurship literature, by employing a systematic review process, focusing on scientometric and content analyses. A data set of 47 articles indexed in the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science database was subject to investigation, this representing the result of a search in Web of Science Core Collection (Social Sciences Citation Index, Emerging Sources Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded) during April 2023. The employed scientometric analysis outlines a classification of the investigated senior entrepreneurship literature based on years of publication, subject areas, main authors, geographical distribution of the articles, most productive institutions, representative journals and publishers. Additionally, due to the developed content analysis over the abstracts of the articles included in the data set, the main research trajectories in the investigated senior entrepreneurship literature could be established. These particularly envisaged the studied topics, applied theories, employed research methods, and the main researched regions. Furthermore, starting from these premises, a future research agenda in the field of senior entrepreneurship was designed. The original analyses developed within the paper and the proposed novel research agenda bring a contribution to the scientific literature in the area of senior entrepreneurship, with important practical implications for scholars with research interests in the field.
