| Abstract: | This article presents the concept of serendipity in entrepreneurship. It conceptually defines serendipity, indicating how it is connected with the entrepreneurship literature on prior knowledge and systematic search. It is also discussed how serendipitous entrepreneurship relates to some aspects of evolutionary theory, socio-economic institutions, and social psychology. It is proposed that serendipity may be a quite endemic in entrepreneurship. |
