AbstractWe explore the distinct roles that family environment plays in the dynamics of Innovative Female Entrepreneurship (IFE), in Latin America, applying the family embeddedness perspective (Aldrich & Cliff, 2003). Contrasting cases in three Latin American countries we found that IFE emerges in evolving contexts, affecting family environments, values, and women’s empowerment. Family environments and entrepreneurship reinforce each other. Prior to entrepreneurship, families cement values of women’s identity construction and their motivation for entrepreneurship; later, beyond moral support, the extended family moderate’s decision making and leverages tangible and intangible resources (knowledge, networks). Imbued in a family environment, women entrepreneurs reaffirm their identity, purposes and nurture the continuous formation and exploitation of value-generating opportunities. In turn, women entrepreneurs catalyze changes in households that bring equity and greater work-family balance.
