Abstract

In the present paper we aim to outline a series of specific features of returnee entrepreneurship in Romania. In order to promote the phenomenon and to raise awareness among policy makers in regard with its potential, in the present paper we put forward a series of preliminary results specific to an ongoing complex and comprehensive field research in the area of returnee entrepreneurship in Romania. In general, these refer to reasons for returning to Romania, to forms of entrepreneurial manifestations, to benefits associated with entrepreneurship, to the influence of the migratory experience on the entrepreneurial process, to the obstacles encountered during the entrepreneurial demarche, etc.  

By placing the research in a country with a high potential for developing returnee entrepreneurship but poorly investigated in this area, through this paper we aim at bringing  a contribution to the diversification of the international scientific literature and to the development of the national one.
