Abstract

Migrant entrepreneurs foster innovation, diversity, equity, and inclusion whilst facing legal and socio-economic challenges in their country of residence – the so-called inclusivity tax. This chapter aims to establish migrant entrepreneurs in the public discussion as drivers of inclusion in their local ecosystem whilst highlighting the history and current challenges through 11 qualitative interviews conducted in Germany. Using a mixed-data approach, we invite new views on migrant business makers. We plea for a narrative change to regard migrant entrepreneurs as raw models for inclusive venturing activities to adapt their knowledge, experience, and way of running businesses inclusively and transfer their approaches to the entrepreneurial ecosystems. This contribution suggests entrepreneurial ecosystems become more inviting for all groups of entrepreneurs, starting by revisiting all kinds of entrepreneurs and regarding them as equal and enriching entities for local business making.
