Background: Low-income households within the UK represent a unique sector, one that is traditionally unrepresented in entrepreneurship and business ownership research.
Objective: This scoping review will be conducted to explore the barriers to engaging in entrepreneurial activity for low-income households within the UK.
Eligibility criteria: The literature search will focus predominantly on original research papers and review articles, including pre-prints, written in English, and published from 2000 onwards; abstract-only papers and opinion articles were excluded.
Sources of evidence: A search of EconLit, Business Source Complete (EBSCOhost), Applied Social Sciences Index & Abstracts, International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, Sociology Database (ProQuest), PsycInfo (OvidSp) and Social Science Citation Index (Web of Science) databases will be undertaken, in addition to a comprehensive journal search using Scopus and a manual search of relevant ‘grey literature’.
Methods: Studies will be identified and selected based on eligibility criteria fulfilment and subsequent screening of the abstract text to determine their relevance. The following data will be extracted: year of publication, country of origin, study aims, definition of entrepreneurship, population studied, sample size, methodology, intervention/comparator details, barriers identified, outcome measures, other relevant key findings, and any solutions posited.
