Abstract

Can a community have a truly healthy, growing entrepreneurial ecosystem unless all segments of the community have access to the tools and resources to develop as entrepreneurs. The Kauffman Foundation uses the mantra of ‘zero barriers’, that is, if some groups have barriers to entrepreneurship then it holds back the entire ecosystem. Thus, ecosystem building needs to actively focus on inclusion. This chapter provides an overview of the key aspects of how to develop entrepreneurial ecosystems inclusively. Further, it discusses how a focus on true inclusion is a ‘rising tide strategy’ that lifts all entrepreneurial boats in the community. The chapter offers actionable policy recommendations for communities.
