What potential does digital entrepreneurship have for being inclusive?

Abstract

This chapter examines the extent to which policy makers should encourage and support digital start-ups as a way to “level the playing field” for entrepreneurs groups that are under-represented or disadvantaged in entrepreneurship. The chapter identifies and discusses the challenges that women, immigrants, youth, seniors and the unemployed face in starting digital businesses, as well as the policy actions that can be used to address market failures. Policy advice is provided for national, regional and local governments.
