Governments worldwide have formulated visions of a transition toward a bio-based economy (bioeconomy). These visions to move beyond the exploitation of fossil resources complement the United Nation’s sustainability goals such as climate change mitigation. Different factors will shape and foster the successful transition to a knowledge-based bioeconomy; among those factors, entrepreneurial activity is especially promising. Therefore, this study examines the enabling and transformational role of entrepreneurship by conducting a structured literature review and thematic analysis to elicit the implicit views on entrepreneurs and their ventures found in the bioeconomy literature. The review identifies three major entrepreneurial themes addressed in the literature that are included in a holistic framework comprising entrepreneurial activity on the micro level, entrepreneurial ecosystems (or clusters and innovation systems) on the meso level, and governmental vision and support on the macro level. Suggestions for further research on the interface of entrepreneurship and the bioeconomy are also provided.

全世界的政府已经制定了向生物经济（生物经济）过渡的愿景。这些超越化石资源开发的愿景补充了联合国的可持续发展目标，例如缓解气候变化。不同的因素将影响并促进向知识型生物经济的成功过渡；在这些因素中，企业家活动特别有希望。因此，本研究通过进行结构化的文献综述和主题分析，以探讨在生物经济文献中发现的关于企业家及其创业的隐性观点，从而考察了企业家精神的推动作用和变革作用。审查确定了文献中涉及的三个主要创业主题，这些主题包含在一个整体框架中，包括微观层面的创业活动，中观层面的创业生态系统（或集群和创新系统），以及宏观层面的政府愿景和支持。还提供了进一步研究企业家精神和生物经济的接口的建议。
