Abstract
This paper examines the influence of the foreignness of an entrepreneur on the relationship between an entrepreneur's gender and business performance. It draws on current research on gender in entrepreneurship literature and foreignness, and argues that foreignness affects performance of men and women entrepreneurs differently. Data was collected from both domestic and foreign business owners in the US. The results suggest that while gender does not affect performance by itself, entrepreneur foreignness was found to have a moderating effect on the relationship between gender and performance. Theoretical implications of the findings for both entrepreneurship and foreignness literature, practical implications for potential investors, managers of overseas operations and policymakers, and future directions of the study are also discussed.
