Abstract：Starting their own businesses in cities is an important path for migrant workers to integrate into urban life, and move up the social ladder to change their destiny in cities. Analyzing migrant workers’ entrepreneurial experience and the factors influencing their entrepreneurship by examining their life experience, our study finds the entrepreneurship is a gradual process for migrant workers to integrate into urban society. Migrant workers who start their own businesses in cities typically go through four stages of working in cities, starting their own businesses, business and life gradually stabilized and career development and transformation. Their entrepreneurship happens in a particular time and space. It is affected by age, family life cycle and the time for life change. Due to the accumulation effect of life experience, different results of entrepreneurship lead to the differentiation of migrant workers, which not only affects how they integrate into urban society, but also affects how they plan their children’s future. The entrepreneurial integration of migrant workers into urban society has the characteristics of intergenerational inheritance and transformation. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage farmers to start businesses in cities as well as back in their hometowns, comprehensively promote citizenization of migrant workers in an orderly way, and also guide migrant workers to retreat from large cities to small towns and even non-urban areas.
