Caring fatherhood &
entrepreneurship towards individuation
#Dadpreneurship
Time is now for new family breadwinning models
The pandemic made it obvious that family is the backbone of society. The availability of dads at home is shifting classical breadwinning role-distribution and transforming gender stereotypes. At the same time the current start-up mindset with massive time investments (and high loss-risks) is a challenging career path for fathers.
As a response to these two developments, Jan Maisenbacher's worldwide Dadpreneurship Community was born in 2021.
Time has come to be a fully present dad while finding new ways of family-breadwinning and purpose-driven entrepreneurship. As Dadpreneur.
The Dadpreneurship Community helps you to go this new way!
Follow us on LinkedIn and don't hesitate to get in touch. Our first prototypes were a modular learning format and virtual meet-ups. Unfortunately, neither of these worked out. We are currently considering whether to start a podcast...
How I experience Dadpreneurship
Dadpreneurship - a new catchy terminology that combines Fatherhood and Entrepreneurship advancing gender diversity.
Dadpreneurship means for me in the year 2021:
- Fatherhood
More physical family presence and egalitarian assumption of care work - a paradigm shift towards "caring masculinity". This change is the ultimate tightrope act for many fathers.
- Entrepreneurship
A socially respected career path associated with high risk (start-up culture requiring considerable time and financial resources).
- Dadpreneurship
A balanced family life with egalitarian care work + purposeful and meaningful independence as a dadpreneur + shared responsibility for family breadwinning with the partner.
Return on emotions
The Dadpreneurship Community supports you towards...
- confidential support with other father entrepreneurs who are on the same path
- Balancing energy and time between being a parent/father and an entrepreneur
- A strong and trusting relationship with your child/children
- Providing the contacts you need to generate revenue for your business model
- an equal relationship with the partner
- your all-encompassing, vibrant self (individuation)

The magical impulse came from me, Jan Maisenbacher. Since 2017, I have been on my entrepreneurial journey of individuation with my sole proprietorship(today janmaisenbacher.com).
Since 2021, numerous "midwives" have helped to bring the Dadpreneurship Community to life.
