Theoretical Contribution to the Entrepreneurship Research: Concepts and Typology

This article seeks to develop and strengthen a common language on the role of theoretical contribution in entrepreneurial studies. It is proposed that the scientific scope of entrepreneurship will essentially need a theoretical contribution strategy towards development and maturity. Furthermore a large volume of entrepreneurial studies published in the accredited entrepreneurship journals fall under the category of reporter, qualifier and tester; therefore it is necessary for the field to initiate a direction towards perfection and conduct research activities with the merit of builders, expanders and testers.In this study attempt has been made to evolve the model of Colquitt and Zapata-Phelan’s theoretical contribution from pure descriptive nature to a normative view in investigations.
