Abstract

 
Purpose: The current research aims to comprehensively analyze the field of "resilience of start-up businesses" through co-citation analysis of authors and co-occurrence analysis of keywords, utilizing data from the Web of Science spanning the years 1995 to 2022. This study seeks to provide a foundation for future research in this area.
Methodology: The current research employed a documentary method for data collection, while scientometric analysis was conducted using Vosviewer software to analyze the data.
Findings: This study examines the research trajectories of 876 articles across six areas: management, business, environmental studies, environmental sciences, green sustainable science and technology, and economics. These fields represent the most frequently explored topics related to resilience in the Web of Science database. A co-citation analysis of the documents cited in the context of "start-up business resilience" is presented. In this network, among the 28,298 cited references, authors with at least 30 citations were included, resulting in 46 articles represented as nodes. This review identifies three clusters: "resilience and global crises, "resilience and sustainability of the supply chain, and "resilience and economic effects. The first research path focuses on crises within the realm of resilience, highlighting that resilience is a crucial factor for start-up businesses operating under conditions of uncertainty and crisis.
In the second area of research, most studies have focused on "supply chain resilience as a latent and path-dependent capability that cannot be measured directly. While few studies in the risk management literature have empirically distinguished between the concepts of resilience and sustainability, many suggest that supply chain connectivity and information-sharing resources contribute to enhanced resilience and sustainability within the business supply chain sector. The third path is related to research that addresses the key concept of "economic effects" in the resilience of start-up businesses. The construct of resilience in this context of entrepreneurship research has been used synonymously with preparedness, tenacity, persistence, or self-efficacy to explain why some entrepreneurs and their companies perform better than their non-resilient counterparts, and how the characteristics of cognitive entrepreneurship and distinctive forms of entrepreneurship, such as social entrepreneurs, They strengthen companies to adapt to new conditions and contribute to long-term sustainability through innovation. Also, 45 countries had international cooperation in this field in 7 clusters, among which the countries of America, England, and Australia have cooperated the most in producing documents in this field. In the Co-occurrence analysis of keywords, 5 clusters include: "Supply chain resilience with a view to the future" "Covid-19 crisis resilience and "economic vulnerability", "resilience success and sustainability factors", "resilience research and development", "infrastructure" Resilience" was determined. The first cluster includes skill, backgrounds, capabilities, conflicts, disruptions, system capability, company performance, future, effects, innovation, integration, knowledge management, logistics, organizations, supply chain management, supply chain resilience, technology, and uncertainty with the title: Supply chain resilience is introduced with a view to the future. The next cluster titled: "Covid-19 crisis resilience and economic vulnerability" includes keywords: start-up businesses, start-up business resilience, covid-19, crises, crisis management, crisis resilience, economic resilience, employment, companies, entrepreneurship, government, growth, knowledge, trend, epidemic disease, resilience, tourism, vulnerability. The third cluster also includes keywords: behavior, business continuity, social resilience, perception, performance, positive motivation, resource-oriented perspective, effectiveness, stress, success, sustainability, and progress, which is introduced as "resilience success and sustainability factors". The fourth cluster includes big data, design, disruption, resilience, framework, industry, management, mitigation, model, risk, strategic and supply chain, which is titled "resilience research and development", and the fifth cluster includes keywords: adaptation, capacity, Networks, risk management, dynamics, social investment, sustainability, transformation, trust, infrastructure. The title is: "Resilience Infrastructure".
Conclusion: The results indicate that scientific advancements in the field of resilience, prompted by the COVID-19 crisis and the necessity for electronic businesses, have led researchers to pursue a new research trajectory. The focus on artificial intelligence and resilience as emerging topics has garnered significant interest among scholars in this domain. Currently, a new wave of developments concerning the resilience of start-up businesses, influenced by artificial intelligence (AI), is impacting all sectors and has the potential to disrupt traditional strategies and operational models, thereby redefining resilience for the future. Consequently, identifying suitable platforms for research and the implementation of resilience globally, aided by scientometrics, can facilitate the adoption of effective measures that promote the growth and stability of businesses to the greatest extent possible.
