Another recurrent theme in the literature pertains to the country-of-origin benefits as possessed by immigrant entrepreneurs. In this regard, it has been distinguished that immigrant entrepreneurs possess the capabilities necessary to access and make use of the entrepreneurial opportunities and resources of their countries of origin despite their not being able to take complete advantage of the entrepreneurial ecosystem of the host country due to blocked mobility (Grujic, 2019). By extension, immigrant entrepreneurship, being both an economic and social phenomenon, can only be best understood by investigating the perspectives of both the host country and country of origin.
