It means they come to do business. Another use means to visit such as, “My parents came calling.” Also used in courting a woman. A man would “come calling” on a woman”

I disagree with Just One Man’s…..in the sense of the question asked, my answer makes sense. If entrepreneurs come calling, they DO want to do business. What else would entrepreneurs want to come calling to do? If you have a business idea, but no money, entrepreneurs will come calling wanting to buy your ideas for a business deal.

“Come calling” is a term usually used to mean a man has come to visit a lady friend that he is interested in. A very old fashioned term.

I disagree with the “do business” answer. They come to your door TO do business, but the “come calling” is literally knocking on your door, schmoozing with you, etc.
