About this Research Topic
The contribution of entrepreneurs to the economy is well proven, especially, in crisis times. The COVID-19 pandemic is not only a public health crisis but also a socioeconomic one. It is ongoing and with so much business uncertainty, predicting the future is a very difficult task. Nevertheless, with its challenges also come new entrepreneurial opportunities.
Knowing this, it would be of great interest to entrepreneurs to discover major changes both during and after the COVID-19 pandemic to help develop strategies, which help forecast how best to respond and spend their energy relating to their mindset. Therefore, the aim of this Research Topic is to critically review, and present cases related to ‘Covid-19 and Entrepreneurial Mindset.’
Over the last few decades, a vast and growing body of knowledge has addressed the entrepreneurial mindset and its relationship with adapting to complex and uncertain environments. However, academic research was not yet considerably equipped to propose a broad range of insight on how to navigate a situation like Covid-19. This is because, as well as environmental uncertainty and complexity, the Covid-19 pandemic changed the standard of doing business. Considering this, if entrepreneurial mindsets can be developed and learned, it could certainly influence firms’ survival and growth.
