Abstract

Purpose:The purpose of the study is to present the future research path of the “startup ecosystems" based on the extracted data from the Scopus database during 1988-2019.
Methodology: This research is a type of applied scientometric research that has been done in a mixed (quantitative-qualitative) way and with the methods of co-occurrence analysis, co-lexical analysis and content analysis. Bibexcel and VOS viewer software were used to draw up required maps. The research population consists of 454 degrees (including articles, books, etc.) in the field of "Startup Business Ecosystem".
Findings: The findings from the survey show that numerous research pathways are aimed at providing insight into the development of startup business ecosystems practices the exponential growth of the certification process in the field has increased more than 58 % since 2015. Density and vocabulary dispersion and word co-occurrence analysis of the network can also be expressed in the area of "startup ecosystem ", which has the greatest attention in this area.
Conclusion: This research shows five pathways for future research: key components of the startup business ecosystem, macro factors, investment, background and environmental factors, organizational and managerial factors.
