Summary/Abstract: Habitual entrepreneurs became an important group of entrepreneurs who make a large contribution to the process of wealth creation. Previous studies have indicated that habitual entrepreneurship is a widespread phenomenon (from 12% to 65%). It highlights the need to focus on the habitual entrepreneurs to understand the dynamic aspect of entrepreneurship. The analysis in the article focuses on existing definitions of different types of entrepreneurs, the scale of habitual entrepreneurship phenomenon and the role of habitual entrepreneurs in entrepreneurial processes. The article also presents the area for future in-depth research on the nature, behaviors and motives of such entrepreneurs, which can be used to formulate policy towards entrepreneurs, paying more attention to the entrepreneur, and to expand support areas for the development of companies, not only their creation.
