Exploring the next generation of international entrepreneurship

In this Editorial, we begin by sketching out two areas that we believe will prove promising for researchers in international entrepreneurship in the foreseeable future: (i) asymmetric information leading to adverse selection; and (ii) the adoption of emerging digital technologies, including social media, aimed at reducing asymmetric information, via the development of informational capabilities. We then summarize the articles in the special issue and how they encompass the above areas. We also suggest ways in which some of these articles could be extended to further develop and broaden the above areas, so to solve entrepreneurship-driven research and/or policy questions. In sum, we see a successful path forward for researchers and policy makers in international entrepreneurship over the coming decade via embracing interdisciplinary research to expand and deepen research questions.
