Women Entrepreneurs and SMEs in the Global South, Gebunden

Klappentext

This groundbreaking volume explores the resilience and innovative spirit of women entrepreneurs navigating the complex landscape of SMEs across developing regions. Moving beyond traditional narratives of struggle, the book showcases how women are not merely surviving but thriving-creating innovative solutions that challenge conventional business models despite limited access to technology, financial resources, and persistent sociocultural barriers.

Through rigorous qualitative and quantitative research methodologies complemented by illuminating case studies, the contributors reveal transformative strategies addressing technological gaps, financial literacy challenges, and restrictive sociocultural norms. Each chapter examines how collaborative efforts can enhance economic participation, accelerate digitalization, and foster entrepreneurial success among women in the Global South.

This essential resource serves academics, policymakers, and aspiring entrepreneurs alike, providing actionable insights to drive meaningful change in developing economies. By reframing women's entrepreneurial journeys as testaments to innovation rather than merely stories of hardship, this book champions the empowerment of women entrepreneurs by transforming obstacles into opportunity for growth and innovation.
