Digitalization's effect on everyday entrepreneurs in the French organic wine industry
From typologies to axes
This study proposes a multidimensional model to understand the diverse trajectories of Brazilian immigrant entrepreneurs in 17 countries. Drawing on a thematic analysis of 38 selected interviews from a database of 284, 10 questionnaires, and a systematic review of 29 international studies, the research highlights the limitations of rigid typologies and argues for analytical axes. Five dimensions structure the model: motivation (necessity, opportu…
Women Entrepreneurs in the Middle East
Straddling North Africa and Western Asia, the Middle East has been a cradle of civilisation and entrepreneurship - well before the arrival of Islam. In this region, gender roles were traditionally specified by culture, with women often expected to stay within the family environment, while men would trade in society at large. This book contributes to the literature on a highly neglected field of study: women entrepreneurs in the Middle East. Recog…
An Investigation of Factors Towards Family Business Sustainability
Digitalization as a growth driver for social enterprises
Social enterprises' motivations for growth arguably stem from their social missions, which can result in moderate business growth due to conflicting interests and the trade-off costs of impact scaling and growing their business. Digitalization has been suggested as one method of enabling the simultaneous growth of business and social or environmental impact. In this study, we analyze the digital orientation of social enterprises and test whether …
Internationalising high–tech SMEs
Choosing a foreign market entry strategy is known to be essential for firm internationalisation yet there is very little focus on the role, purpose, and value of open innovation for internationalising high–tech SMEs. A review of the international business, international entrepreneurship and international marketing literature combined with a bibliometric mapping of 2501 articles on firm internationalisation, suggests that research does not readily…

Deconstructing involuntary financial exclusion
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) struggle to obtain credit when credit ratings and collateral are used as criteria to assess their credit applications. In the context of Africa, the financial markets have gaping institutional voids, and contextual insights into SMEs’ experiences remain underdeveloped. Drawing on the stakeholder-agency theory of debt financing, this paper advances the scholarly conversation by theorising about how collate…

Digital entrepreneurship
Digital technologies permit a massive reduction of transaction costs. As a result, traditional social interactions that take place in the entrepreneurial ecosystem are disrupted and a new landscape emerges. Digital platforms are the organizational form that benefit most from reductions in transaction costs; they take a prominent advantage from their ability to scout worldwide emergent knowledge, as well their ability to match extraordinarily hete…

The Covid-19 Pandemic and Migrant Entrepreneurship
The economic recession caused by the COVID-19 pandemic reinforced existing inequalities in the business market. Typically facing numerous structural constraints, during the ongoing crisis migrant entrepreneurs appear to be at greatly heightened risk. Applying Davidsson’s and Gordon’s (2016) classification of crisis responses to the realm of migrant entrepreneurship, the current article intends to shed some light on what coping strategies are used…

Furthermore, we investigated emotional intelligence as a coping strategy to moderate employee physiological and emotional health damage. The research used a quantitative research design.

Two forms of community entrepreneurship in Finland
Every reindeer herder in Finland belongs to one of 56 co-operatives, each known as a paliskunta. In addition, some reindeer owners herd using the folkloric siida model of co-operation. Content analysis of interviews conducted with reindeer herders - referred to as reindeer husbandry entrepreneurs, by the Reindeer Herders' Association - from two ethnic communities in Finland, reveals that respondents who identified themselves as ethnic Finns viewe…
Indigenous Land Claims and Economic Development
The current socioeconomic circumstances of the Aboriginal people in Canada are abysmal. According to the 1991-census, 42 percent of Aboriginal people received social welfare, as opposed to 8 percent of the Canadian population as a whole.1 In the same year unemployment among Aboriginal people stood at 24.6 percent, almost two and one-half times the national rate of 10.2 percent. The Aboriginal population will rise by 52 percent between 1991 and 20…

When Economies Change Paths
Towards a theory of indigenous entrepreneurship
Indigenous populations throughout the world suffer from chronic poverty, lower education levels, and poor health. The "second wave" of indigenous development, after direct economic assistance from outside, lies in indigenous efforts to rebuild their "nations" and improve their lot through entrepreneurial enterprise. This paper suggests that there is a distinguishable kind of activity appropriately called "indigenous entrepreneurship". We begin by…

Indigenous peoples in Chile
This paper gives an overview of Indigenous Peoples in Chile, their self-employment activities and struggle to survive. In the Mapuche economy, the economic unit is not the entrepreneur but the family. While each family works for itself, in the context of a capitalist system, some enterprising tasks are done communally. Meanwhile, self-employed Aymara farmers have developed very sophisticated strategies to protect themselves from unnecessary risk.…

Collective Entrepreneurship in a Mennonite Community in Paraguay
This article examines the impact of prevailing religious beliefs on the dominant view toward work and achievement. The focus of the article is the Menno Colony of the Chaco, one of the Mennonite communities in Paraguay. It illustrates that the values of this religious minority appear to facilitate successful collective entrepreneurship. Here, religion values asceticism, frugality, and thrift, but not private property. Entrepreneurship takes a col…
Toward Sustainable Economic Development
This paper uses a naturally occurring event as an experiment; it is almost a controlled experiment in the sense that it compares the current state of affairs in two adjacent economies which used to be one, up to World War I. After the war, German Togoland was split into two territories, one exposed to the policies of French rule (Togo) and the other to that of British Gold Coast administration (Ghana). Both are independent today, Ghana attempting…

Reindeer herders in Finland
This study of reindeer herding in Finland identifies important differences between Indigenous Sámi reindeer herding, and reindeer husbandry by persons from mainstream society. A central theme was that ethnic Finns simply viewed their entrepreneurship as a means to economic profit. In contrast, Sámi respondents attributed their herding to a “pull” toward cultural tradition, while a frequent finding was that Sámi respondents – especially women – we…

Bazaar Economies, Modern Networks and Entrepreneurship
The success of entrepreneurs today depends largely on their ability to become globally competitive, even if they refrain from competing globally. One way in which small‐scale entrepreneurs – lacking economies of scale – can compete against large multinationals is by developing relationships with other firms, within multipolar networks. Entrepreneurs are shedding their traditional focus on independence, as they discover interdependence and relatio…
Diversity and Entrepreneurship
"Whilst there has been an increased interest in minorities and their contribution to society, the literature on minorities and under-represented communities is still weak. This edited volume discusses entrepreneurship in the context of minorities and the role they play in society. The book looks at under-represented communities such as gay/lesbian/transsexuals, disadvantaged, ethnic minority, religious entrepreneurs, medically limited, Indigenous…

Pathways of SME internationalization
Business is dynamic and rapidly changing. Global markets were previously the playing field of multinational corporations (MNCs), while small and medium enterprises (SMEs) were local; however, the removal of imposed barriers and recent technological advances in manufacturing, transportation, and communications have indorsed SMEs and international entrepreneurs (IEs) global access. SMEs and IEs are increasingly fueling economic growth and innovatio…
