This special issue addresses the role that the human capital characteristics of individuals and teams play in the complex process of technological entrepreneurship.

We summarize the articles in the special issue and also outline a research agenda at the firm, entrepreneurial team, and individual entrepreneur levels. Finally, we discuss managerial and policy implications.
