Abstract

Migrant entrepreneurship involves the indigenous population and migrant communities, exerting a profound influence on the host country or region. This phenomenon is particularly relevant in ultraperipheral areas, as in this research exemplified by the Autonomous Region of Madeira (Madeira), which recently witnessed an intensification of migrant inflow, many originating from countries with a deep historical connection to the region.

This research characterizes the entrepreneurial migrant community to discern factors that may contribute to formulating and enhancing political-social policies to foster entrepreneurship success, broadly relevant to generating wealth but of particular importance in facilitating migrants’ integration. The analysis focuses on understanding the motivations that drive entrepreneurial initiatives among migrants, recognizing the predominance of necessity-driven entrepreneurs, and that migrant entrepreneurs often take advantage of historical and familial ties to the region to overcome the obstacles specific to migrants.

探索极端边缘地区的移民创业与创新：机会与需求驱动型创业调查

移民创业涉及本地人口和移民社区，对东道国或地区产生深远影响。这一现象在极端边缘地区尤为重要，本研究以马德拉自治区（Madeira）为例，该地区近期移民流入加剧，其中许多人来自与该地区有着深厚历史渊源的国家。本研究描述了创业移民群体的特征，以发现可能有助于制定和加强政治社会政策以促进创业成功的因素，这些因素与创造财富广泛相关，但对促进移民融入社会尤为重要。分析的重点是了解推动移民创业的动机，认识到以需要为导向的创业者占主导地位，以及移民创业者往往利用与该地区的历史和家庭联系来克服移民特有的障碍。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Innovation and Knowledge (JIK) explores how innovation drives knowledge creation and vice versa, emphasizing that not all innovation leads to knowledge, but enduring innovation across diverse fields fosters theory and knowledge. JIK invites papers on innovations enhancing or generating knowledge, covering innovation processes, structures, outcomes, and behaviors at various levels. Articles in JIK examine knowledge-related changes promoting innovation for societal best practices. JIK serves as a platform for high-quality studies undergoing double-blind peer review, ensuring global dissemination to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers who recognize innovation and knowledge as economic drivers. It publishes theoretical articles, empirical studies, case studies, reviews, and other content, addressing current trends and emerging topics in innovation and knowledge. The journal welcomes suggestions for special issues and encourages articles to showcase contextual differences and lessons for a broad audience. In essence, JIK is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing theoretical and practical innovations and knowledge across multiple fields, including Economics, Business and Management, Engineering, Science, and Education.
