Absztrakt:
Our objective is to analyse the role of different ecosystem domains in fostering the entrepreneurial activities of people with disabilities (PWD), connected to the experiences of the different stages of the entrepreneurial lifecycle. By making a connection between these two theoretical concepts, our paper contributes to the entrepreneurship literature and the growing body of empirical research on entrepreneurs with disabilities (EWD). In our exploratory qualitative study in 2018-2020 we interviewed 29 entrepreneurs about their motivations, identity, barriers and supporting factors for being an entrepreneur. Analysing the ecosystem domains and actors that determine each stage of life, it seems that, alongside the difficulties and supporting factors experienced by entrepreneurs in general, EWD face additional difficulties. Much of these can be linked to the policy and culture domains of the ecosystem.
