Title
Migrant Work Inclusion: Designing Research on Entrepreneurship Support
Abstract
This paper proposes a novel research design for analyzing how Entrepreneurial Support (ES) can impact Entrepreneurial Activity (EA) in general and activities carried out by migrant entrepreneurs specifically. It develops a case study based on a Norwegian migrant entrepreneurship research project, comparing three ES programs for migrants with three ES programs for non-migrants and two mixed programs over a three-year period. The key features of the new design set out in this paper are 1) the usage of a Systemic Entrepreneurship Activity Method (S-E-A-M) and digital platform for the ES referred to as Entrepreneurship Management System (EMS), 2) a digital observation method collecting mixed methods data via the EMS, 3) the comparative and longitudinal nature of the study analyzing different groups of entrepreneurs over three years and 4) the co-creative nature of the study involving the entrepreneurs in the ES design.
