ESCP Business School, the World's First Business School (est. 1819) invites applications for a full-time
PhD fellow position in Entrepreneurship starting in September 2023. The PhD candidate receives a full
scholarship for 4 years, including a tuition waiver, and generous support for conferences and research
visits..
The PhD candidate will work on the fascinating topic of self-made entrepreneurship. The vast majority of
successful entrepreneurs hail from privileged backgrounds therefore providing them with solid
foundations to start a business. Yet, some entrepreneurs still make it without access to the relevant
educational, financial, and/or social capital. What specific strategies and approaches do these
entrepreneurs adopt to build legitimacy in the entrepreneurship world despite the hurdles that they face?
The student will address this interesting puzzle.
