The usage of digital technology in entrepreneurial activities has consistently increased year by year. This paper aims to provide an overview of the research landscape in the field of digital entrepreneurship. The study utilises a systematic approach to map and analyse the scholarly output related to digital entrepreneurship through bibliometric analysis. The database from ISI Web of Science was extracted to conduct the analysis. A total of 2545 was extracted, and 1690 remained after data cleaning. There is an upward trend in digital entrepreneurship publications. This study is expected to guide researchers interested in digital entrepreneurship studies. The findings of this bibliometric analysis shed light on the pivotal role of digital technologies in shaping contemporary entrepreneurial practices. It is recommended that future research explore the impact of digital technology on business performance or innovation behaviour.
