Women and Growth: The Entrepreneur Perspective
Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 12
Abstract
We live in a world impacted by rapidly changing technology, practices, cultural norms and fluctuating economies. India has experienced seven decades of freedom but its women are still waging a war for equality and independence. This thought extends to women in business too. Women are now eager to start enterprises irrespective of the scale of operation. Starting a business would not suffice. The entrepreneur would have to traverse through myriad obstacles. Hence, the current research was necessitated. 164 women entrepreneurs in and round Vijayawada were surveyed in the newly formed Andhra Pradesh in Southern India. The structured questionnaire comprised queries on demographics, the facilitating factors, ability to handle obstacles, Government support and growth of women entrepreneurs.
