This article reviews the experimentations and feedback from COVID and the post-COVID-19 era towards future transformations in entrepreneurship for disadvantaged communities. The pandemic is an unparalleled global catastrophe, which has affected global economies and human health and also resulted in a planet-wide economic slowdown, disturbing investment, trade employment, and economic growth. The paper utilized the systematic review approach in the course of gathering the literature for this study. The gap in this study is to review the imbalance in administration, management, and structure during the COVID-19 and post-COVID era, among the disadvantaged and vulnerable rural communities, in which entrepreneurship was not left behind. In addition, it also reviews how enterprises adopt new ways of working, through virtual communication, and workers can decide to either work face-to-face or remotely through satellite offices based on the nature of their profession and employee preferences. Hence, this paper recommends sustainable solutions to post-COVID challenges towards the development of entrepreneurship through widened access to capital (among others), for the entrepreneurs and the future of work. A new strategy to minimize the loss of work and the lower quality of life of many people all around the world was recommended in the article. Further investigative studies and initiatives channeled towards the feedback on COVID-19 as well as in the post-COVID-19 period will lead to the improvement and enhancement of knowledge towards future transformations in entrepreneurship for disadvantaged communities.
