Abstract
Technology plays a crucial role in the entrepreneurship process. Yet, little is known of how the entrepreneurial processes of the poor are affected by technology and vice versa. Using interview data from a sample of low-income entrepreneurs, this article develops a framework for how the delicate interaction between entrepreneurial processes such as bricolage and effectuation, and (digital) technologies unfold. Building on interpretive inductive research, we uncovered four main categories that describe the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">technologization</i> patterns of entrepreneurial individuals in poverty: strategies to resource the business; innovative capability; community building; and dynamic capabilities. Our work offers a more comprehensive understanding of technology and its impact on poverty ventures.
