This study examines the roles of creativity and innovation in entrepreneurship, particularly within the context of SMEs in Indonesia. Creativity is understood as the ability to generate new ideas relevant to market opportunities, while innovation is the process of transforming these ideas into valuable products, services, or business models. The research employs a literature review method with content analysis and thematic synthesis of recent studies. Findings reveal that creativity is influenced by individual factors and socio-organizational environments, including digital support and collaboration. Innovation, encompassing product, process, and digital business model innovations, plays a critical role in enhancing competitiveness and business sustainability, especially amid disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The synergy between creativity and innovation strengthens SMEs’ competitive advantage through digital technology adaptation and sustainability orientation. However, existing literature remains limited in exploring the psychological and social mechanisms in depth as well as the quantitative impacts of innovation. This study recommends strengthening ecosystems that support creativity and innovation through training, technical assistance, and cross-sector collaboration. Thus, creativity and innovation constitute fundamental pillars that can drive entrepreneurial success and growth in facing dynamic market challenges.
