- © 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.In this study, we examine the potential of multicultural individuals (i.e., individuals who have experienced and internalized two or more cultures) to become international entrepreneurs. We focus on two characteristics of successful entrepreneurs: cognitive complexity and social network. Using a sample of 417 individuals aged 18¿52, we found that multicultural individuals exhibited higher levels of cognitive complexity in internationalization-related challenges and belonged to more geographically diverse social networks than their monocultural peers.
