In the past 4 years my co-author, Asya Al Lamky, and I have
been
developing a model of Arab women entrepreneurship based on case
study
research we conducted in Bahrain and Oman. Preliminary
findings have
been published in the Journal of Developmental
Entrepreneurship, Vol.
10, No. 2, August 2005. The article,
“Toward an understanding of Arab
women entrepreneurs in Bahrain and Oman,”
lays the foundation for an
approach to business start-up for Arab women
which, while similar in
many ways to those in the west, has enough variation
to merit a
different model. We are looking to extend our
research to other
countries in the Gulf States
Region and are seeking collaborators for this
purpose. Please
respond to me directly if you think you may be
interested in joining our
research initiative.
