Migrant entrepreneurship is increasingly recognized for its potential to foster inclusion, empowerment, and socio-economic development in host communities. However, migrants often encounter unique challenges, such as limited access to financial resources and cultural or language barriers, which can hinder business creation and growth. Entrepreneurship education offers a promising mechanism to address the unique challenges faced by migrants focusing not merely on venture creation but on fostering their empowerment. Despite its potential, questions remain about how to design entrepreneurship education programs that can adequately address migrants’ specific challenges and fully support their empowerment in host communities. This paper systematically reviews the literature on migrant entrepreneurship, contributing to the field by uncovering that migrants’ experiences are shaped by three key dimensions: identity, acculturation process, and human capital. Together, these dimensions define the meaning of empowerment for the specific target of migrants. The findings of this study reveal that when leveraged effectively, these dimensions provide essential levers for designing impactful and tailored entrepreneurship education programs. Conversely, neglecting these elements undermines migrants’ entrepreneurial success, and, consequently, their empowerment.
