Abstract

This study introduces a novel concept of inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem that addresses the backdrops in entrepreneurial ecosystem literature. The inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem is conceptualized by combining two well-known concepts: inclusive entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Combining these two ecosystems enables us to comprehend the interaction between marginalized communities and factors which incorporates both individual and social aspects. Four principles comprise the inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem: inclusive governance and resources, inclusive policies, inclusive culture, and inclusive markets. This study proposes a conceptual framework and develops an inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem index for each of the four categories by using multisided platforms of world reputed databases to better understand and empirically investigate the inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem in the future.
