dc.description.abstractThis research considers the importance of ethnic minority immigrant entrepreneurs’ engagement within and beliefs surrounding their host country experiences, and how this impacts on entrepreneurial action. The relevance of such research is highlighted by an ever increasingly global economy and as a consequence greater emphasis has been placed on understanding the entrepreneurial behaviour of persons moving across cultural, economic and national borders. This paper is derived from a grounded theory study of narratives from ethnic minority immigrant entrepreneurs in New Zealand, and resulted in a conceptual framework which considers the impact of engagement and beliefs on actions within the entrepreneurial process. The conclusion of this study is that there is an interdependent relationship which warrants further investigation and this paper offers insights into that relationship and a framework for further empirical study.en
