Masculinities in Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship in general, and tech entrepreneurship in particular, continue to be highly gendered making up a predominantly masculine field of work and innovation. Nevertheless, studies on gender in entrepreneurship have mainly focused on women and how gender influences women’s entrepreneurship, particularly how the masculine entrepreneurial norm is constitutive of women entrepreneurs’ opportunities and challenges. Lately, there has been a scholarly call for studying the masculine entrepreneurial norm and the male entrepreneurial figure.
