Qualitative research contributes to the diversity of academic inquiry in entrepreneurship and can help advance rich insights about entrepreneurial phenomena that may not be available otherwise. To bolster the growing interest for qualitative research in entrepreneurship and cast light on prevailing practices, we analyze qualitative studies reported by entrepreneurship researchers. Focusing on 187 qualitative works published between 1989 and 2015 in quality journals, we offer an in-depth understanding of the state of qualitative research in entrepreneurship and unearth hitherto invisible patterns in common practices of published qualitative investigations. Based on our research, we highlight fertile directions for future scholarship.
