Abstract
This paper seeks to pinpoint the position of so-far research of skills for entrepreneurship in a bigger scientific inquiry network by relating it to its semantically related concepts’ studies, which include entrepreneurial capabilities, abilities, capacities, and competencies. The bibliometric analysis method using VOSviewer was applied to analyze a total of 1,250 journal articles, written in English and published between 1973 and 2021, from the Scopus database. The descriptive statistics analysis revealed the growth of literature, publication outlets, and influential authors. The co-occurrence analysis of keywords suggested that the research on skills for entrepreneurship is highly related to entrepreneurship education research and entrepreneurial intention research. The follow-up content analysis in detail elaborated these two groups of relationships: skills and intention, and skills and education. The results are expected to benefit entrepreneurship researchers by offering a better understanding toward skills for entrepreneurship as a concept and as a developing research topic.
