Women entrepreneurial endeavors continue to garner worldwide attention. There has been a lot of research done on women entrepreneurs, but very little is known about them. This is surprising considering that women are one of the populations of entrepreneurs whose numbers are growing at the fastest rate and play a significant role in innovation, job creation, and economic growth all over the world. In spite of obvious progress, women in every nation trail men in business ownership and economic independence. Gender discrimination, conflict between work and family, difficulty raising capital, lack of infrastructure, unstable Business, Economic, and Political (BEP) environments, lack of training and education, and personality differences are some of the obstacles that women entrepreneurs in developing nations face. According to the study, unstable BEP environments and financial constraints must be addressed as top priorities.
