In this retrospective article, we outline the rationale for starting Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal . We provide evidence on the percentage of published papers in SEJ in each of 10 key themes in strategic entrepreneurship identified when the journal was founded. Evidence on progress toward goal achievement in terms of trends in submissions, desk reject and acceptances rates, and downloads, plus examples of highly cited papers and entry into key indicators such as the Financial Times list of 50 journals. We outline developments in strategic entrepreneurship and their implications for future research, notably the need to consider multiple levels of analysis and the role of context variety. Finally, we discuss some of the lessons we learned from SEJ in terms of general challenges that arise in starting a new journal. Copyright © 2017 Strategic Management Society.
