The papers included in this special issue will contribute to the definition of the entrepreneurial processes in healthcare, highlighting the variety of conceptualizations representing new entrants (i.e., digital companies) and incumbent companies (hospitals, pharma firms, biotech firms). In addition, the Special Issue attempts to address new research issues in the convergent field of healthcare and entrepreneurship, such as gendered entrepreneurial experiences within the healthcare industry, frugal innovation, sustainable healthcare entrepreneurship. Furthermore, it will be important to see the submissions that focus on the growing practices of healthcare entrepreneurs and specifically to shed further light on the configuration of healthcare start-ups and scale-ups. This work is necessary, as this special issue aims to provide a more comprehensive view of sophisticated interactions between economic and healthcare actors and healthcare entrepreneurs.
