Abstract: Diverse demographic components internationally have resulted in an emerging awareness of ethnic minority entrepreneurship. In New Zealand, Indians are an ethnic minority who form approximately 1.7% of the population. Based on qualitative research methodology and grounded in feminine epistemology, the entrepreneurial journey of Indian women entrepreneurs in New Zealand is explored. The findings reveal multiple layers of meaning and the recoding of connections as the women seek to both confront and co-exist with their Indian past and their New Zealand present - a border zone, where entrepreneurship serves as a focal point for making a difference in the host country New Zealand.
