In recent years, returnee youth entrepreneurship has garnered widespread attention across various sectors, yet less so in academic research to date. This study explores the processes of returnee youth entrepreneurship from a resourcing perspective through a case study of the founder of The Kids From Lukang. Employing grounded theory in the collection and analysis of qualitative data, this study identifies a process of returnee youth entrepreneurship framed as a series of resourcing processes and outcomes. The process included four stages: the exploration stage, co-growth stage, business model development stage, and impact expansion stage. Each stage corresponds to a specific resourcing schema (participating, connecting, living, and co-creating), which guide returnee youth entrepreneurs in leveraging various potential resources (space, community partners, project outcomes, and the entrepreneur themselves) through intersubjectivity in resourcing strategic actions (gaining legitimacy, repurposing, and expanding participation) to address the predicaments or developmental tasks at each stage. This approach also resulted in ampliative cycles of resource expansion. Furthermore, this study posited that entrepreneuring is a series of resourcing processes. Theoretical and practical implications were proposed according to the research findings. |
