MILLAN JIMENEZ, Ana y GARCIA ESCRIBANO, Juan José. Entrepreneurship in people with disabilities. Cultural and social aspects. suma neg. [online]. 2019, vol.10, n.spe22, pp.27-34. ISSN 2215-910X. https://doi.org/10.14349/sumneg/2019.v10.n22.a4.
This paper aims to analyze the cultural and social aspects that favor or hinder the entrepreneurship of people with disabilities. Three main factors have been examined: the socio-economic and cultural environment, the geographic one and the aspects related to the most personal motivations. Concerning the socioeconomic environment, it has been observed that it arises with the very definition of the disadvantaged groups that act in this environment. Moreover, an essential factor in creating a social environment prone to entrepreneurship is to normalize the visibility of this group and support it economically and emotionally.
On the other hand, the geographical context also influences and conditions the possibility of entrepreneurship by people with disabilities. Depending on it, there will be a more excellent supply and demand for services; it will offer more business opportunities, guidance, information, and training, all of which are central factors in shaping the attitude of people with disabilities to create new businesses. Finally, some factors have been found located in an interpersonal and social plane where the individual becomes visible and is recognized.
