What is it about?

Family businesses in diaspora and family-driven entrepreneurship across borders face various impediments and challenges, but they also possess valuable global ties and resources stemming from their multiple embeddedness. A study on Bukharian Jewish diaspora and Bukharian entrepreneurial culture and identity provide insights on how entrepreneurship can be fostered within families and in diaspora.

Why is it important?

The Bukharian Jewish Diaspora is a good example how entrepreneurial traditions and culture can be turned into entrepreneurial assets and activities in diaspora.

Perspectives

Entrepreneurial empowerment and engagement has its seeds in the family context and community. This diaspora actively fosters entrepreneurship that in parallel assists both the maintenance of their cultural heritage and their economic participation and prosperity in the host context.
