The subject area of Business, Management, and Accounting classified most publications, and there is a growing interest in sustainability and entrepreneurship research over time, as shown by the increase in publications. The study also identifies networks and collaborations between authors and institutions, highlighting the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration in sustainability and entrepreneurship research. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights into the current state of research in sustainability and entrepreneurship, identifies areas for future research, and emphasizes the need for cross-disciplinary collaboration in this field
