Hi,
Have you come across this study?
"Wealth Bringers - The Sustainable Value of Disabled Entrepreneurs in
England's Northwest"
It was carried out by University of Salford (2008), with some really good
partners from the business industry. It is possibly first in demonstrating
the untapped potential and economic value of entrepreneurship of disabled
people- in numbers too. It also discusses the barriers that hold back this
potential. You will find in this link further information and the full
report.

We are also very interested in entrepreneurship of disabled people. We have
created http://www.disabled.gr/biz/ (greek language) under our portal
disabled.gr (you could see our profile in the English section), and always
look for studies, papers, press or stories regarding the issue.
So we would also welcome any research or press releases you may come across!
Good luck with your thesis!

Subject: Master thesis on disabled entrepreneurs
I am a master student in Norway currently working on a project where I want
to look at challenges for disabled entrepreneurs. This inquiry is very vague
and general, but I am looking for any theory or research within the area of
entrepreneurship and people with disabilities.
Thank you!
