Entrepreneurship is, above all, an act of crossing boundaries. Geographic boundaries, when entrepreneurs build businesses and solutions in peripheral, rural, or emerging regions where resources are scarce and barriers are structural. Social boundaries, when social actors break away from traditional patterns and assert their agency in the entrepreneurial landscape. Boundaries of knowledge, when researchers challenge established paradigms and propose new theoretical, methodological, and epistemological lenses to understand entrepreneurship in its complexity and plurality.

It is in this spirit that the XIV SINGEP invites researchers, academics, and practitioners to submit contributions that broaden and deepen the understanding of entrepreneurship in its multiple dimensions. We are living in a moment in which diversity, of actors, contexts, trajectories, and approaches, ceases to be merely a thematic focus and becomes recognized as a fundamental condition for producing richer, fairer, and more relevant knowledge. The plurality of entrepreneurial experiences is not peripheral; it is central.

In this context, the XIV SINGEP welcomes studies that acknowledge the diverse impacts entrepreneurship can generate, economic, social, environmental, and cultural, and that explore the new pathways emerging in the field.

The event values methodological and theoretical pluralism, and contributions adopting qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-method approaches are welcome, including case studies, action research, longitudinal studies, and systematic literature reviews. We seek research that advances academic knowledge while also offering practical contributions for entrepreneurs, managers, and policymakers.

We invite the academic community to go beyond boundaries, beyond the conventional, the expected, and the already known, and to contribute perspectives that expand the horizons of entrepreneurship both as a scientific field and as a transformative force in society.
