There is growing interest in the relationship between gender and
entrepreneurial activity. In this book, 37 eminent scholars from
diverse academic disciplines contribute cutting-edge research that
addresses, from a gender perspective, three general areas of
importance: key characteristics of entrepreneurs, key performance
attributes of entrepreneurial firms, and the role of financial
capital in the establishment and growth of entrepreneurial firms.
Each chapter focuses on original, burgeoning themes related to
gender and entrepreneurship, with forward-looking research that
highlights key findings. For example, some authors show how the
so-called 'gender divide' in patenting is greater than in
publishing for academic entrepreneurs. Others explore the
corruption in business practices, which is less for women
entrepreneurs than their male counterparts, and explain why gender
diversity is higher in equity crowdfunding than in other
entrepreneurial finance markets. The book takes a global approach,
offering examples of entrepreneurs from around the world. Scholars
and students interested in entrepreneurship and the role of gender
in business will find this volume informative and eye opening.
