High indicators of women’s entrepreneurship also occur in some developed America countries, such as Canada, Chile and the United States.
Europe and Asia with low indicators
In turn, many developed countries of Europe and Asia record very low indicators of female business activity. Poland is particularly unfavorable, where only 2.3% of adult women are involved in entrepreneurship. Similarly low results were recorded in Egypt (2.6%), Romania (3.7%) and China (4.9%). For comparison, in India, this factor is 10.3%, which is still a relatively low value on a global scale.
Coercion and innovation in entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship in medium and low -developed countries is often forced, resulting from a lack of stable jobs. Unlike this in developed countries, where innovative enterprises dominate, the labor market is more developed and provides better employment alternatives. Nevertheless, the difference between sexes in business persists both in developed and developing countries.
Impact of unevenness on feminine business activity
It is worth noting that the high participation of women in entrepreneurship does not always mean gender equality. In South Korea, an increase in the number of women-entrepreneurs is associated with traditional, male dominance in corporations, which forces women to look for alternative career paths. A similar phenomenon may occur in Muslim countries, including in the Middle East, where entrepreneurship becomes a means to achieve professional independence for women – we read in statistically.
