• Resumen

  • Este trabajo analiza la relación entre el haber pasado por un proceso de migración y la percepción de riesgo a la hora de crear una empresa. Con el fin de validar empíricamente las hipótesis que se formulan, se utilizan los datos obtenidos por el proyecto Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) en España durante el año 2009. El análisis de los resultados revela que, con independencia del origen, es menos probable que los inmigrantes perciban la creación de una empresa como una situación arriesgada. Estos datos invitan a reflexionar sobre explicaciones relacionadas con el proceso de selección antes de salir de sus países de origen y el cambio de percepción del riesgo después del proceso migratorio. Así mismo, fruto del análisis de los resultados alcanzados, se plantean implicaciones prácticas significativas de cara a la formulación de estrategias y políticas orientadas a fomentar el emprendimiento en este colectivo.
