Abstract [en]

This study explores the intersection of entrepreneurship and social dynamics in precarious environments, particularly focusing on how digital technologies—AI, blockchain, AR, and VR—shape gender equality, social inclusion, and community cohesion. These factors are critical for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Through a mixed-methods approach and snowball sampling of 24 entrepreneurs, the research delves into the lived experiences of entrepreneurs facing discrimination and limited access to resources. Preliminary findings reveal the underrepresentation of these entrepreneurs and the challenges they face due to gender and ethnic biases. The paper assesses the impact of entrepreneurial endeavors on social dynamics and community well-being, offering insights into how entrepreneurship can foster social change and empowerment. The study contributes to the discourse on entrepreneurship in challenging contexts, the role of digital technologies in creating positive social outcomes, and the broader implications for achieving the SDGs.
