Entrepreneurship in rural hospitality and tourism. A systematic literature review of past achievements and future promises

Arun Madanaguli, Puneet Kaur, Stefano Bresciani, Amandeep Dhir · 2021 · International Journal of Contemporary Hospitality Management

Summary. This systematic review of 101 articles from 2000–2020 examines entrepreneurship in rural hospitality and tourism. The authors identify six key research themes: barriers and enablers, entrepreneur roles, women entrepreneurs, firm performance drivers, innovation, and value creation. They find that entrepreneurship journals have given limited attention to rural hospitality, most studies are qualitative, and research concentrates heavily in Europe. The review proposes an ecosystem framework and outlines six future research directions.
