Diaspora Entrepreneurs, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book offers an exploration of diaspora entrepreneurship across twelve globally mobile communities. Drawing on case studies and comparative analysis, it examines how immigrant founders convert social capital into venture creation, funding, and cross-border growth. The volume identifies key behavioral traits, such as trust, resilience, craftsmanship, and network stewardship, that shape entrepreneurial outcomes in different cultural contexts.

Since the rise of transnational entrepreneurship as a field of study, research has increasingly focused on the mechanisms by which diaspora communities build and scale ventures across borders. This book contributes to that body of knowledge by introducing a standardized framework for analyzing founder ecosystems, including sector maps, capital stacks, strategic plays, and risk profiles. It also presents a comparative scorecard that helps readers benchmark their own entrepreneurial ventures based on metrics such as founder density, innovation footprint, and capital access.

This edited volume brings together leading scholars in entrepreneurship, innovation, and international business. Contributors provide practical insights into the unique challenges and advantages faced by diaspora founders, supported by their own academic research.
