Conceptually investigate the relationship between Entrepreneurial Bricolage, Ecological Innovation, and Entrepreneurial Mindset on Digital Entrepreneurial Intentions among SMEs in Saudi Arabia

Abstract: Recognizing Saudi Arabia's SMEs, this study examines how entrepreneurial bricolage, ecological innovation, and entrepreneurial mindset influence digital entrepreneurial intentions. The research investigates how those constructs contribute to fostering entrepreneurial self-efficacy and, in turn, drive digital entrepreneurship. The study famously found that entrepreneurial bricolage permits aid-restricted people to creatively leverage available equipment and materials, ecological innovation promotes sustainability-oriented ventures, and an entrepreneurial mindset fosters resilience a. Entrepreneurial self-efficacy emerges as a critical mediator, amplifying the impact of these factors on digital entrepreneurial intentions. This paper emphasized the importance of policy interventions and effective resource allocation in fostering entrepreneurial self-efficacy and guiding digital innovation. This paper highly recommends navigating the knowledge gaps on the mediating role of self-efficacy and establishing the groundwork for future research into various industries, geographical locations, and other factors impacting digital entrepreneurship. Recommendations also consist of investigating longitudinal trends and qualitative insights to deepen comprehension of the way entrepreneurial constructs evolve.
