This study aims to seek an understanding of the characteristics of the studies on design entrepreneurship and their major research topics for the last 22 years through the analysis of the research trends on design entrepreneurship in South Korea.
Methods A text mining technique was used to analyze the research topics related to design entrepreneurship from 1999 to 2020. The research subjects were 334 academic research papers and theses that were found in the RISS, a research paper search site, with design entrepreneurship and design startup as keywords.
Result The analysis showed that the studies on design entrepreneurship have been conducted focusing on the topics that have been traditionally studied in the fields of venture businesses and design management, and those that have recently been attracting attention in the field of design entrepreneurship. In some topics, segmentation and diversification were observed.
Conclusion This study is significant in that it identifies the research topics and trends in the field of design entrepreneurship and analyzes the research trends using a text mining technique, which analyzes unstructured data. In addition, the study will provide researchers with an opportunity and direction to gain insight from an academic perspective in selecting a research topic that is different from existing ones. |
