description Australia is a multinational country with people from different nationalities and cultural backgrounds, most of whom migrated for a better life for their families. These migrants are often faced with discrimination and challenges in their job search. In their quest to make a living and for a better family life balance, they set up small businesses, some of which serve their ethnic communities. The interconnectedness brought about by technology has transformed business operations beyond physical borders. Despite all these transformations, some migrant small businesses do not efficiently make use of the power of Information technology (IT) and therefore lose out on potentially maximizing their profits and growing their enterprises. The study is to assesses factors influencing the adoption of IT in migrant small businesses in Australia, in the case of the first and second generation black-African migrants.
