Another round of research metrics, scores and ranking came out with the latest release of the ScholarGPS global rankings. Although relatively new, these rankings are increasingly gaining traction, with universities and mainstream media beginning to reference them more widely.
In the 2025 ScholarGPS rankings, I was placed as the top-ranked researcher globally in entrepreneurship education, and 40th overall in entrepreneurship over the preceding five years. Being ranked first in entrepreneurship education my original area of research and passion, is an achievement I am particularly proud of.
In recent years my research has tended to move into entrepreneurship, knowledge management and wider business fields as I have taken on a mentoring role, leading business and management research at the University of Worcester. This shift may make it harder to remain at the very top of the rankings in the years ahead. Nevertheless, it is deeply rewarding to know that I reached the summit of my original research passion, something I never anticipated when I first entered the field of entrepreneurship education around 2014.
