Research Summary Entrepreneurship and innovation are social and relational processes that occur in diverse contexts involving multiple stakeholders. Recently, research in entrepreneurship has begun to explore entrepreneurial processes through the lens of gender. However, unlike its entrepreneurship counterpart, innovation research has paid limited attention to gender dynamics. Indeed, the majority of studies on innovation focus on products, processes or organizations, with the individual often not ‘seen’. This special issue recognizes the intertwined nature of gender, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and in doing so, presents five articles that develop new theory and provide new empirical evidence on the topic of innovation in women’s entrepreneurship. Collectively, they offer new perspectives and open new avenues for future work. In structuring this editorial, we present an overview of the state of the field, provide a multilevel future research agenda, and introduce the articles that comprise this special issue. Managerial Summary Despite the importance of entrepreneurship and innovation for economies and societies worldwide, innovation and gender are rarely explored together. Indeed, limited attention has been placed on the gendered nature of the relations among innovators, entrepreneurs, and processes. This special issue includes five articles which address this gap from multiple perspectives. The editorial describes the state of the field prior to the special issue, introduces the special issue articles, and identifies a multilevel perspective suggesting avenues for further investigation.
