Description
This book explores the nuanced dynamics that shape immigrant entrepreneurship. It examines how time, context, and gender influence entrepreneurial behaviours of diasporas in emerging contexts, offering a fresh perspective on the motivations, strategies, and challenges faced by immigrant entrepreneurs. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the authors examine the intersection of cultural adaptation, economic aspirations, and social networks, and their evolution over time. By focusing on gender and behaviours unique to diaspora groups, this book provides an in-depth understanding of the impact of identity and heritage on business practices and the transformative role of immigrant entrepreneurs in their host countries. Featuring real-world case studies, this book is an essential resource for scholars, researchers, academics, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the changing landscape of immigrant entrepreneurship in today’s interconnected world.
