Entrepreneurial Creativity Research Articles

About the Essence, Genesis and Classification of Entrepreneurship

The work describes the essence and genesis of entrepreneurship; It is highlighted that entrepreneurship, as an object of research, was not always given a prominent place in the history of economic thought. The first to use the term "entrepreneur" and explain its importance in the development of the economy was the French scholar Richard Cantillon; It is shown that the foundation of the modern understanding of entrepreneurship was laid by the Austrian Joseph Schumpeter, who recognized the creative entrepreneur as a revolutionary of the economy, i.e. the basis of development. Based on existing studies, entrepreneur and businessman are distinguished from each other because the entrepreneur tends to experiment, innovate and create new things. A businessman is focused on effective business management issues. An entrepreneur, as opposed to a businessman, is someone who owns and manages his own business; Entrepreneurship is divided according to the level of innovation and degree of risk: "business", "traditional entrepreneurship" and "innovative entrepreneurship. Such a separation is made only at the theoretical level, because it is impossible to do it in practice even due to the lack of statistical accounting data; It is justified that business and entrepreneurship have different goals and objectives, ways of achieving the goal, role of owners and attitude to mistakes; The difference between an entrepreneur and an inventor (rational analyst), an entrepreneur and a manager is established point by point; It is noted that a maximum of ten percent of the economically active population is gifted with entrepreneurial ability (talent), and professional managers are much more; It is emphasized that the content of the entrepreneur's work is very similar to the people of such creative professions as: scientist, writer and director. Keywords: entrepreneur, businessman, manager, business, traditional entrepreneurship, innovative entrepreneurship, inventor.

Creativity, alertness, and entrepreneurship: A multilevel meta-analysis

ABSTRACT Contributing to ongoing conversations about the central role of creativity in entrepreneurship, we propose that creativity leads to positive entrepreneurial outcomes through a crucial mediating mechanism: entrepreneurial alertness. We conducted a multilevel meta-analysis of 92 published studies with 209 effect sizes extracted and a cumulative sample size of 927,615 participants. Our findings suggest that alertness fine-tunes creativity and channels it toward more promising opportunities, innovation, and firm performance. Integrating Schumpeterian and Kirznerian perspectives, this study provides a pragmatist view of entrepreneurship and paves the way for further theorizing the association between creativity and alertness in explaining entrepreneurial outcomes.

The Impact Of Female Entrepreneurs On Local Economies

This paper looks into the contribution of female entrepreneurs to regional economies and gives further detail on the contribution they may make to innovation, economic growth, and community development. It proves that women-owned businesses do not give variety to the market but are also significant in generating employment and reinvesting revenues into their local communities, which causes a trickle effect and increases well-being within the general economy. The paper will discuss case studies on successful and famous female entrepreneurs: Mindy Kaling, founder of Kaling International; Sara Blakely, founder of Spanx; Whitney Wolfe Herd, co-founder of Bumble; and Nadia Hussain, owner/creator of Nadia's Kitchen. The study of each woman will show precisely how these women have revolutionized industries and sparked local economies through their unique ideas and the leading force of this entrepreneurship. Success and stories of Sara Blakely with Spanx also prove that one entrepreneurial vision can change an entire industry in the blink of a second by creating a new market segment and thousands of jobs. Also, the creation of Bumble has disrupted not only social networking and dating apps but also created great economic benefits with regard to jobs and technology. Mindy Kaling’s impact through Kaling International showcases the potential for creative entrepreneurs to shape media and entertainment, influencing cultural narratives while supporting local talent and economic growth. Nadia Hussain’s Nadia’s Kitchen underscores the role of culinary entrepreneurship in promoting cultural diversity and community engagement, alongside creating new employment opportunities. The paper also explores the critical success factors contributing to the achievements of these female entrepreneurs, including access to funding, robust support networks, educational opportunities, and favorable policy environments. It highlights how these factors together help bring about entrepreneurship among women, succeeding in their barrier-breaking business enterprises with unique strengths. It therefore points to wider economic and social benefits of female entrepreneurship through in-depth examination of these factors. It goes further to argue for the necessity for continued and increased support for women in business through policies and initiatives that can further make their impact on local economies more solid. This, the research argues, is how investing in female entrepreneurs helps build economic development into more inclusive and resilient communities

A Bibliometric Review of Creative Economy Entrepreneurship: Implications for Community Empowerment Strategies

This study presents a bibliometric review of creative economy entrepreneurship, focusing on its implications for community empowerment strategies. Using data from Google Scholar and Scopus, the analysis covers publications from 1997 to 2024. The VOSviewer software was used to conduct co-citation, keyword co-occurrence, and network mapping analyses to identify key research trends, influential authors, and emerging topics. Results show that "creative industry" is central to discussions, with frequent connections to themes like "local wisdom," "business development," and "digital transformation." The study highlights the growing importance of digital tools and sustainability in creative entrepreneurship, particularly in empowering marginalized communities. The analysis also reveals distinct author collaboration clusters, pointing to limited interdisciplinary interactions that could benefit from further exploration. Overall, the findings suggest that while creative economy entrepreneurship is a promising tool for community empowerment, more research is needed on digital inclusion, sustainability, and cross-disciplinary collaboration. This review contributes to the understanding of how creative industries can drive both economic growth and social empowerment.

The effect of career anchors, job-esteem, and work engagement on retention intention in hospital nurses

This descriptive study aimed to analyze the effect of career anchors, job esteem, and work engagement on retention intention among hospital nurses while identifying factors contributing to retention intention in this group. The study involved 174 nurses with over six months of clinical experience employed at three general hospitals. The dominant career anchor among hospital nurses was security/stability (4.59), followed by life-style (4.52), technical/functional competence (4.13), and service/dedication (4.12). Hospital nurses’ retention intention was predicted by the entrepreneurial creativity (β=0.289, p<.001), job-esteem (β=0.268, p<.001), and job engagement (β=-0.295, p<.001) of career anchors. These factors collectively accounted for 35.2% of the variance (F=10.360, p<.001). Conclusion: In the future, we aim to conduct studies analyzing factors influencing retention intention and extract trends based on career anchor types and sample groups. This will inform detailed career development and personnel management policies.

Историческая наука о вкладе предпринимателей в формирование архитектурного облика городов дореволюционной Сибири

The aim of this article is to analyze the extent to which the role of entrepreneurs in the development of Siberian cities has been studied, particularly their contributions to the construction of various types of buildings in the region during the second half of the 19th – early 20th centuries. The renewed interest in the public and everyday life of entrepreneurs has prompted scholars to delve deeper into this subject. Researchers have explored a variety of topics, including contributions to the construction and renovation of administrative and commercial-industrial buildings, as well as cultural establishments such as libraries, museums, theaters, churches, temples, gymnasiums, and universities. New facts have emerged regarding entrepreneurs’ participation in philanthropy, with studies examining the motivations behind their charitable activities. The relevance of historiographical analysis, within the framework of modern discussions, is underscored by the theory of creative entrepreneur-ship. This theory, currently developing among modern Russian entrepreneurs from both large and small-to-medium-sized businesses, highlights their contributions to the architectural development of cities, culture, the economy, and philanthropy. This research provides valuable insights into how entrepreneurs of pre-revolutionary Siberia influenced not only the physical appearance of cities but also contributed to their social and cultural advancement.

Results also indicate that social media and crowd cognition play an important role in developing creative artisanal beer.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is founded on the theoretical maxims of social learning theory (SCT), social cognitive theory and theory of creativity. The contextual interpretation of SCT explains the socialization of concepts by modelling emotions and behavior to derive structural experiences as observed in artisanal entrepreneurship.Practical implicationsEntrepreneurs can develop brand emotions, boost anthropomorphic feelings and inculcate the sense of nationalism among consumers to market ethnic brands and develop social consciousness towards consumption of “Made in Mexico” products.Social implicationsArtisanal beer face major challenge of customer outreach by enhancing the brand proximity and ethnic values. Ethnic products hold a strong image in niche market and need to be stimulated by the experience sharing through social media and community interactions.Originality/valueThis research study significantly contributes to the existing literature on ethnic entrepreneurship and creativity using innovative research approach.

Entrepreneurship at the edge? The characteristics and role of creative entrepreneurs in peripheral regions

ABSTRACT To advance the understanding of the nature and dynamics of creative entrepreneurship in specific contexts, this paper explores how creative entrepreneurship both shapes and is shaped by its peripheral context. This paper adds to the growing work that is helping us understand that when looking at the periphery through the lens of cultural and creative practice we find a much more nuanced set of relations between place and practice. We focus on geographically separate regions facing the same obstacles of geographic peripherality. Underpinning the findings are semi-structured interviews reflecting the experience of creative entrepreneurs in North East Iceland, Västernorrland in Mid Sweden and the western region of Ireland. While we recognise that problems still exist in the creative industries policy domain, we argue that policy supports would be best designed in line with the characteristics of the sector in particular places. This work also helps to develop knowledge of the multifaceted role of the creative entrepreneur in peripheral societies and economies.

Is creativity a reality in Bulgaria cities? An empirical study in the pre-pandemic period

This study aims to obtain a composite index characterizing Bulgarian districts about their creativity by presenting results for the pre-pandemic. The composite index developed by Rodrigues and Franco (2019), use of quantitative method and multivariate statistical techniques have been used to answer this objective. From the data gathered primarily from NSI- The National Statistical Institute of Bulgaria, the results show that creativity is one of the pillars of economic growth, and financial resources and local and foreign investment for its development are still very limited. The government and cultural organisations supported initiatives to showcase the country's cultural diversity and historical significance. The creative sector, including design, arts, media, and technology started to be seen as a driving force for the country's economic growth. Startups and creative entrepreneurs are increasingly gaining weight, which has led to the creation of creative centers, and co-working spaces. Therefore, this study contributes to the intelligent application of creative cities’ ideas in the creative industries and contemporary cities’ management.

NETWORK TIES, ENTREPRENEURIAL CREATIVITY AND COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: THE MODERATING ROLE OF KNOWLEDGE INTEGRATION CAPABILITY

This study aims to examine the moderating effect of knowledge integration capability on the relationship between business ties, political ties, and entrepreneurial creativity on competitive advantage. We present the first model that links the ability to integrate knowledge, network ties, and entrepreneurial creativity with the background of MSMEs in Indonesia. This study’s data collection method is a questionnaire survey given to Indonesian MSME entrepreneurs. Meanwhile, 358 questionnaires have been qualified for further processing as part of the random sampling approach used in this study’s sample collection. Additionally, the survey data were acquired through the use of SmartPLS, and the study’s findings indicate that business ties, political ties, and entrepreneurial creativity all favorably impact competitive advantage. Knowledge integration capability reinforces the influence of business ties and entrepreneurial creativity on competitive advantage. But knowledge integration capability is unable to counteract the impact of political ties on competitive advantage. The results complement the literature related to the use of knowledge resources in achieving competitive advantage. Considering the important role of knowledge integration capability in the escalation of competitive advantage in corporations, MSME entrepreneurs are strongly advised to consider the available resource of knowledge. To preserve the competitive advantage, knowledge should be continuously expanded.
