In this chapter, we explore the untold stories of Spanish and Irish necessity entrepreneurs to better understand the process of becoming an entrepreneur. We illustrate how necessity entrepreneurs don't recognize themselves in the institutionalized entrepreneur narrative as empowered, creative and independent individuals since it is necessity, not opportunity that pushes them to become entrepreneurial.
