Description
Women-owned small businesses are making increasingly important contributions to the global economy and are developing at a faster pace than those of men (Langowitz & Minniti, 2007). Indeed, it is estimated that women-owned enterprises comprise approximately 30% of the total number of small businesses in most countries (Minniti & Naudé, 2010). Within the entrepreneurship literature, women and small business ownership has primarily been studied from a motivational perspective.
