ABSTRACT

Corporate entrepreneurship has gained attention from both academics and practitioners due to its significant contribution to economic growth and overall firm performance. Nevertheless, the corporate entrepreneurship literature is evolving, with little known about how stakeholders affect the processes of corporate entrepreneurship in organizations. Therefore, this study is to explore the relationship between stakeholder integration and corporate entrepreneurship. The work is a nonempirical review of the literature with the development of a conceptual model. The study proposes that stakeholder integration capability can enhance corporate entrepreneurship among entrepreneurial firms. This conceptualization is unpinned by the stakeholder theory. The findings of the study indicate that entrepreneurial businesses must create and implement a thorough stakeholder management strategy to promote stakeholder involvement, which can lead to innovation. The study recommends that future studies test the proposed conceptual model.
