The Role of Symbolic Capital Among Entrepreneurs in the Croatian Software Industry

Drawing on Bourdieu's theory of capital, we present the results of research on the forms of symbolic capital of entrepreneurs and their conversions into economic, social and cultural capital. The research is industrially and spatially positioned within the software industry in the Republic of Croatia and is based on a qualitative methodology. Face-to-face in-depth interviews were held supplemented by observations. Empirical data were analyzed using the techniques of grounded theory. The results show that the software entrepreneurship is characterized by a wide range of symbolic resources that are valuable in the context of acquiring economic capital and cultural capital.
