Towards an Analytical Framework of Dual Entrepreneurial Ecosystems and Research Agenda for Transnational Immigrant Entrepreneurship.

This paper argues that immigrants' dual embeddedness within their host and home countries in the context of transnational immigrant entrepreneurship (TIE) represents an engagement with dual (host and home country) entrepreneurial ecosystems (DEEs). There is increasing recognition among researchers and policymakers of TIEs' contribution to economic development in both their host and home country. This paper aims to contribute to the rapidly growing field of TIE by exploring the theoretical relationship between TIE and DEEs. The research proposes a TIE analytical framework and corresponding research agenda based on the integration of TIE and DEEs. It argues that the DEEs' embeddedness determines the TIE processes and success. This research makes a theoretical contribution to the TIE literature and has practical implications for policymakers and the immigrant community. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
