This Special Issue explores how context shapes growth, operations, and sustainability of family enterprises—particularly micro/small firms—in Asia Pacific. Counters developed-world biases in theorizing; spotlights diverse institutional, cultural, historical influences on ownership, governance, entrepreneurship. Advances contextual theorizing for resilience, reinvention, cross-border impact via local philosophies, institutions, histories. Original focus on understudied micro/small firms (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2020; Teixeira et al., 2020).
