This study defines the conceptual structure of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) by looking at the terms scholars have used over the last 26 years of research. With the use of a co-word analysis, five distinctive dimensions of CE and the evolution of related key terms are identified: sustained regeneration, competitive advantage, external entrepreneurship, organizational rejuvenation, and domain redefinition. Over time scholars’ attention has shifted from strategy to entrepreneurship by highlighting the relevance of the terms ‘intrapreneurship’ and ‘entrepreneurial orientation’. Surprisingly, concepts related to strategic entrepreneurship and strategic renewal are less relevant than expected. Besides laying the ground for a shared conceptualization of CE, this study highlights how bibliomeitrics can contribute to decreasing conceptual ambiguity in emergent research fields, such as entrepreneurship. Implications for managers on how to strategically create and develop CE within different organizational settings are also discussed.

这项研究通过考察学者在过去26年的研究中使用的术语来定义公司企业家精神（CE）的概念结构。通过使用共词分析，可以确定CE的五个独特维度以及相关关键术语的演变：持续再生，竞争优势，外部企业家精神，组织复兴和领域重新定义。随着时间的流逝，学者们通过强调“企业内创业”和“创业导向”这两个术语的相关性，将注意力从战略转向了创业。出乎意料的是，与战略企业家精神和战略更新有关的概念比预期的没有那么重要。除了为共享CE概念奠定基础之外，这项研究强调了文献计量法如何有助于减少新兴研究领域（如企业家精神）中的概念歧义。还讨论了如何在不同组织环境中战略性地创建和开发CE的管理者的含义。
