This book offers novel insights into the nascent entrepreneurship realm, focusing specifically on the role of women. Grounded on rigorous literature analysis and adopting advanced bibliometric and topic modeling protocols, the first part of the book provides a comprehensive overview of women nascent entrepreneurship studies by combining diverse perspectives and methodologies. It thus offers a critical narrative synopsis of the phenomenon and derives fundamental tendencies and tensions. The book further exposes the ongoing debates and research frontiers on women entrepreneurship, unveiling critical dynamics at the early stage of entrepreneurial activities, such as the role of gender in engaging in opportunity entrepreneurship vs. necessity entrepreneurship and the role of the context. Using the GEM database, the book empirically analyzes a sample of 171,629 nascent entrepreneurs from 101 countries and tests key drivers of women nascent entrepreneurship.
The book contributes to bridging nascent entrepreneurship and women entrepreneurship research areas and creates a roadmap for academics and policymakers, outlining directions for future research avenues.
