market, technology, and labor; the widening of international business, the frequent conflicts and wars, affect all people in the

immigrant / ethnic entrepreneurs have been affected by the changes in the world economy and have also begun to influence social, economic and social life. In this context, it is necessary and important to discuss the research on immigration, migrant
entrepreneurship and especially Turkish migrant entrepreneurs. From this point of view, the main purpose of the study is to

around the world. Literature review method was preferred in the study. According to the results, immigrants and immigrant
entrepreneurs in the world are increasingly involved in world trade; they play important roles in shaping social and economic
life. The transition from paid employment to entrepreneurship is becoming widespread among Turkish immigrants; Turkish
entrepreneurs increase their influence not only in Europe and America but also in Asia. They are becoming an indigenous and
important part of the local economy in many places in the world. The research details draw attention to the fact that migrant
entrepreneurial activities can be considered as an effort to create a transnational identity.
