Abstract
For entrepreneurship research to be relevant and impactful, entrepreneurship scholars must start by understanding the problems faced by entrepreneurs.However, problems are different from research questions.As scholars, where do we start, and how do find these problems? And how do we ensure that we do user-inspired research that advances both understanding and practical relevance? Based on my experience and learnings as an ex-practitioner in training to be an entrepreneurship scholar, who took on the Me-search approach in my research to solve a problem in digital entrepreneurship, this essay presents my humble experiences in framing a real-world problem in solution-oriented entrepreneurship research.Given that I have taken a path less traveled, unintentionally, starting with a problem rather than from a theory orientation, I present my informal reflections on why entrepreneurship scholars need to develop both descriptive and prescriptive knowledge.
