| Fostering the participation of women entrepreneurs strengthens the economy and can be a source of political, economic and social innovation. Women business owners, as compared to their male counterparts, often have a different vision of organization and management style, company structure, community service and the use of technology, which can work to positively contribute to and diversify economies. This paper examines the participation of women in entrepreneurship including women-owned small and medium sized enterprises and uses a case study from the Republic of Korea. |
