The journal facilitates the exploration of new areas of studies and methodologies while also offering an international forum to debate and disseminate research findings among the scientific community. Scholars who are interested in tourism science and studies will find in Turistica a vibrant and engaging scientific outlet. Turistica invites original contributions of an empirical and theoretical nature. It aims to publish high-quality studies on any aspect of tourism, including interdisciplinary contributions on tourism-related topics. The journal abides by the principles of Open Science and promotes ethical publication practices on behalf of its academic community.<br />Established by Professor Emilio Becheri in 1991 as the first Italian journal on tourism economics, marketing, and management, as of 2023 Turistica has broadened its scope and adopted a <a href="https://www.scienceeurope.org/our-priorities/open-access/diamond-open-access/">Diamond Open Access business model</a>. It is now the official journal of the <a href="https://www.sistur.net/">Italian Society of Tourism Sciences (SISTUR)</a>.</p> <p>Turistica is recognized as a scientific journal by ANVUR (Italian National Agency for the Evaluation of the University and Research Systems) in Area 13 (Economics and Statistics).</p> <p> </p> https://www.turistica.it/journal/index.php/turistica/article/view/42 2024-10-02T10:49:09+02:00 Fabio Greco fabio.greco@unina.it Laura Clemente laura.clemente@uniroma1.it Francesco Bifulco francesco.bifulco@unina.it

<p>There has been a growing interest in start-up companies and their potential to disrupt traditional industries in recent years. At the same time, the spread of tourism and the new forms of its provision require increasingly innovative and disruptive business ideas. Therefore, it seems appropriate to cross the two topics of start-up and tourism. This paper aims to provide a systematic literature review (SR) on tourism start-ups through a detailed and replicable process for analysis to examine the role and impact of tourism start-ups in the global tourism industry. The review begins by exploring the definition and classification of tourism start-ups, highlighting their distinctive features and entrepreneurial skills. It then delivers the results of a subsequent SR that shows various theoretical and empirical frameworks that indicate the need for further study with on-field research. The review methodology of this work has two preparatory phases. The first phase concerns a generic look at the most evident literature to identify variables to implement a systematic review process through R Studio software. Through this investigation, the authors attempt to provide scholars and practitioners with signs of how start-ups are emerging in the tourist business and input for future research.</p>
