Abstract

This chapter reveals the essential roles of trust and bridging social capital in an immigrant business start-up process, which takes place in an environment lacking business opportunities based on serving one’s own ethnic community. The narrative unveils how the business start-up process of Inga—an Estonian in Finland—is intertwined with the personal and professional processes of her social inclusion in a new host country. There were several liabilities to overcome during the business start-up process, despite the cultural proximity of her home and host countries. Her story reveals a little-studied phenomenon of the Nordic diaspora.
