“…It may also be true that discrimination impacts on the sorting process but we have no concrete evidence for that. However, if we compare our findings with those for second-generation migrant entrepreneurs in the Netherlands (Rusinovic 2006;Beckers and Blumberg 2013), we find that the highly educated among these second-generation migrants are more capable of getting access to high-skilled activities. Being educated in the Netherlands, the issue of not acknowledging their credentials does not arise and, in addition, being brought up in the Netherlands, they know the ins and outs of the Dutch regulatory system.…”

“…The Ghanaian migrant entrepreneurs constitute a pertinent case of newcomers as most of them arrived after 1980 and, moreover, if we look at their resources, we can observe that they are, on average, relatively well-educated, most of them fluent in English and quite a few in Dutch as well, and, in addition, many of them have entrepreneurial experience prior to migration which sets them apart from their earlier counterparts (Rusinovic 2006;Beckers and Blumberg 2013). Most of them settled in the larger cities of the western part of the NetherlandsAmsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague-which have through thorough processes of de-industrialisation and subsequent expansion of high-end service activities.…”

“…With the increasing salience and visibility of ethnic entrepreneurs globally, ethnic and migrant entrepreneurship is often recognized as contributing positively to the host nation's economic activity (Clark and Drinkwater 2010;Beckers and Blumberg 2013) as well as being a tool for immigrants' integration into the host society (Hiebert 2002;de vries 2012). Although the terms 'ethnic entrepreneurship' and 'immigrant entrepreneurship' are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference between them (volery 2007; Azmat 2010).…”

“…the four criteria for recruiting the MWEs were: (a) being a permanent resident; (b) having lived in Australia for at least a year at the time of the research; (c) being first-generation migrants; and (d) living with partners or children. As our research focused on unravelling the effect of home country's culture on their entrepreneurship experience, first-generation migrants were considered appropriate as they are more likely to be influenced by their home culture than second-generation migrants (Dhaliwal and Kangis 2006;Azmat 2010;de vries 2012;Beckers and Blumberg 2013).…”
