A third of the world's entrepreneurial activity is driven by women.
With the mass movement of people now commonplace, the role of
female entrepreneurs in immigrant communities has become an
increasingly important component of the world economy, its
productivity, and the struggle against poverty. Throwing light on
the dynamics of entrepreneurship generally, and on immigrant and
female entrepreneurship in particular, the global Female Immigrant
Entrepreneurship (FIE) project is a huge and exciting research
undertaking. Written by the project's team of researchers based in
prestigious business schools and universities on almost every
continent, this important book begins the process of discovering
why and how female driven business start-ups often seem to
spontaneously emerge in adverse environments. Is it randomness,
luck, or chance that determine success or failure, or vital
critical forces and the inherent qualities of the women involved?
The research emerging from the FIE project points to answers to
questions about the integration of immigrant communities, their
interaction with host economic and business environments, and the
role of women in that interaction. With findings from more than
fifteen countries, from the USA with some of the world's oldest and
largest immigrant communities, to African countries that are the
newest destination for Asian migrants, this book will help inform
social and economic policy in communities and countries searching
for prosperity. More than that, the book offers policy makers,
business leaders, and those concerned with business development the
chance to uncover some of the mystery around the complex phenomenon
of entrepreneurship itself.
