%X This article analyses the different models of businesswomen of Asian origin in Spain. To that end, the author considers both the family variable in the migration project and the individual¡¯s own personal project. These variables, in turn, combine with others, such as the businesswomen¡¯s position in the family and the stage of the migration project in which they find themselves. As a result, the author defines four profiles: 1) family businesswomen; 2) women who market their own work; 3) daughters of business families; 4) daughters of the diaspora. Furthermore, a transversal element also exists among all the female entrepreneurs: the use of the ¡°ethnic¡± as a business asset.
