Beskrivelse
Symposium:The topic of diversity, equity, and inclusion of historically marginalized groups has recently garnered great scholarly interest in management. In this symposium, we build on this recent interest and examine the role of geography in promoting innovation and entrepreneurship of individuals from historically marginalized groups. Geography provides a platform for organizing regional innovation and entrepreneurial activity. Yet, relatively little empirical research examines how elements of the geographic environment influence the innovation and entrepreneurship of individuals from historically marginalized groups. The papers in this symposium specifically examine how geographic variations in regulations, industry agglomerations, research infrastructures, and concentration of businesses of marginalized groups affect the innovation and entrepreneurship of historically marginalized groups. Each study addresses the unique role geography plays, with potential implications for broader social issues on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
