Entrepreneurial Ecosystem (EE) research raised as a hot topic (Velt et al., 2020), leading to progresses on its elements (Stam and van de Ven, 2019), network (Albourini et al., 2020), actors (Purbasari et al., 2020) or levels of analysis (Theodoraki and Messeghem, 2017). However, some scholars regret the absence of empirical analysis of EE as a whole to understand how EE configuration operates (Panetti et al., 2019).
This paper addresses this question. It emphasizes the networked nature of EE and provides an original empirical study led on several EEs in Africa. Interactions between entrepreneurs (Carayannis et al., 2018; Corrente et al., 2019; Neumeyer et al., 2019), incubators (van Rijnsoever, 2020), institutions (Ivy and Perényi, 2020), running various forms of collaboration (Basole et al., 2015; Theodoraki and Messeghem, 2015), play a central role in the distribution of EE resources to entrepreneurs.
Providing an empirical study on EE is a crucial issue for research (Cavallo et al., 2019), and requires to apprehend its network attributes (Tatarynowicz et al., 2016). This will open new theoretical perspectives to understand the organisational model of EE and its impact on its outcomes (Ratten and Rashid, 2020).
