Legacy Scholars II: The 2021 Nominations

longitudinal case study illustrates how female entrepreneurs can use gender stereotypes as a resource, enacting the ideas of social feminism in their entrepreneurial practice, and thus challenging traditional gender stereotypes. The author contributes to extant scholarship by providing an extension to social network theory in women ’ s entrepreneurship. Collectively, the 2021 Legacy Scholars ’ contributions challenge existing notions in current literature studies in relation to racism, start-up ventures, innovation and networking in the context of gender and entrepreneurship. The insights they provide through their empirical investigations, analyses, personal reflections and unique experiences offer opportunities for further debate, as well as further challenge. In doing so, they signal toward an exciting new research agenda upon which future scholars in this field can build by applying their own critical lenses. We look forward to hearing from these future scholars in “ Legacy III. ”
