Abstract
⺠Young firms owned by immigrants outperformed young domestically-owned firms whether or not the domestic firms exported. ⺠Immigrant-owned young enterprises that did not export underperformed other young firms. ⺠Owner-level factors such as gender, growth intentions and experience also influenced growth performance among young SMEs. ⺠Immigrant owners may have access to international networks that provide competitive advantage over non-immigrants. ⺠Not all immigrant business owners, however, are able to lever export-related advantages.
