Abstract
This study presents a bibliometric analysis of business performance (BP) research, exploring global trends, key contributors, and emerging topics within the field. Using Scopus data from 1940 to 2024, the analysis identifies major trends, influential authors, prominent institutions, and collaborative networks shaping BP research. Findings reveal that core topics such as competition, innovation, and knowledge management have remained central, while themes like digital transformation, sustainability, and Industry 4.0 are gaining prominence. The analysis also highlights significant international collaboration, especially among institutions in Southeast Asia, China, and the USA, indicating a globally distributed research landscape. This study provides a comprehensive overview of BP research evolution, offering insights into areas that warrant further investigation to enhance organizational performance in a rapidly changing environment. Future research should emphasize the integration of emerging topics with established frameworks to address contemporary challenges in business performance.
