Far-reaching technological developments are reshaping societies and economic environments worldwide, with the emergence of new digital infrastructures such as artificial intelligence, fintech, data analytics, robotics, and nanotech leading to the creation of new creative industries and the extension of entrepreneurship boundaries. The intermixing of traditional and new technologies has led to a redrawing of boundaries and an extension of the limits of entrepreneurship, making it easier to start up a company by reducing resource intensity, uncertainty, limited time, and information asymmetry. The De Gruyter Handbook of Digital Entrepreneurship examines the impact of these technological disruptions using existing paradigms and re-examining our conception of the entrepreneurial phenomenon in terms of its evolving nature and shifting contours. The contributions to this handbook promote the emergence of new theories and conceptions of the entrepreneurial opportunity and process that more fully reflect the realities of the new environment we are living in. They will benefit both academics aiming to familiarize themselves with the state of research and theory within topics and subtopics in digital entrepreneurship and practicing entrepreneurs and managers aiming to acquaint themselves with leading edge practices and insights in digital entrepreneurship.
