This research delves into the dynamic interplay between entrepreneurship, digital commerce, artificial intelligence (AI), and empowerment for entrepreneurs with disabilities. The extensive literature review unravels the multifaceted challenges faced by this demographic, emphasizing limited access to capital, the scarcity of tailored support systems, societal biases, and accessibility barriers within digital platforms. In contrast, the study celebrates the resilience and unique perspectives that entrepreneurs with disabilities contribute to the entrepreneurial landscape. Focusing on digital commerce, the literature review explores opportunities for market access and global reach, accessibility challenges, adaptive design principles, e-commerce innovations, and their consequential impact on market reach and scalability. Methodologically, the research employs a questionnaire-based approach with 28 participants, uncovering real-world insights into the experiences of entrepreneurs with disabilities. The results section, presented through tables, provides tangible connections to the theoretical framework explored in the literature review. The discussion and analysis synthesize literature findings with empirical results, offering a holistic perspective on unlocking entrepreneurial potential for individuals with disabilities. The research concludes by highlighting implications for policy and practice, advocating for inclusive approaches and technological innovations to create an environment where entrepreneurship is accessible to individuals of all abilities. This study contributes significantly to the empirical foundation, guiding future research and initiatives aimed at fostering an inclusive entrepreneurial landscape.
