In recent years, the number of people who wish to work on the second job has been increasing, and the percentage of people who do not currently work on the second job but would like to do so in the future exceeds 30% of the employed population (Recruit Works Research Institute National Employment Status Panel Survey 2020). Overseas, hybrid entrepreneurship has received increasing scholarly attention in recent years. Hybrid entrepreneurship describes the engagement in self-employment activity while simultaneously holding a primary job in waged work. Yet little is known about the phenomenon. Even the definition of the term has not been established, and its reality is not understood in detail. With the aim of deepening our understanding of this phenomenon and defining our research agenda, this paper reviews the literature on hybrid entrepreneurship and present overall picture and the characteristics of hybrid entrepreneurship.
