ABSTRACT
Entrepreneurial learning (EL) has emerged as an important concept at the interface of entrepreneurship and organisational learning. However, its literature is diverse, highly individualistic and fragmented. We first conduct a systematic analysis of the EL literature to identify developmental patterns. Second, we discuss three pairs of key learning types, namely individual and collective learning, exploratory and exploitative learning, and intuitive and sensing learning. These learning types correspond to three key challenges that EL research needs to address. Third, we discuss how these learning types can help us to understand the challenges at the centre of debate in the entrepreneurship literature.
