WeSoar Global Research on Entrepreneurial Women

Transformative Global Research on Entrepreneurial Women

to Empower Others

A transformative study to empower women

entrepreneurs across the globe

Launched in Amsterdam in 2013

Overcoming the Odds: The majority of poor people are women

Globally, women suffer disproportionately  

External barriers for many women entrepreneurs:   Inequalities Cultural and traditional practices Restrain on access to resources Decision on resource allocation Use of resources 

Internal Barriers for many women:

Self doubt Risk Averse Own high standards Fear of unpredictability

Many women entrepreneurs are constantly challenged to counteract an unfavorable

business environment

In some cases the strategies women use are unlikely to

facilitate growth
