Abstract

Žensko poduzetništvo, iako značajno za ekonomski rast i inovacije, susreće se s nizom sprecifičnih izazova koji otežavaju ženama uspješno vođenje i rast poslovanja. Među izazovima se ističu pristup financijskim sredstvima, nedostatak poslovnih mreža i resursa te društvene i kulturne predrasude. Kako bi se riješili izazovi s kojima se žene poduzetnice suočavaju, postoje različite inicijative i programi koji pružaju financijsku i nefinancijsku podršku, poput mentorstva, edukacijskih programa i pristupa financiranju. Iako se žene sve više odlučuju za ulazak u poduzetništvo, ove prepreke i dalje otežavaju njihov put prema uspjehu. Iz tog razloga, potrebne su sustavne promjene, uključujući prilike za financiranje, podršku i uklanjanje rodnih prepreka kako bi se ženama omogućilo da ravnopravno sudjeluju u poduzetništvu i gospodarstvu. Iako su ostvareni značajni napretci, još uvijek postoji prostor za daljnji razvoj. Rodne razlike u poduzetništvu i dalje su prisutne, što naglašava potrebu za dodatnim naporima u promicanju rodne jednakosti i stvaranju uvjeta koji će omogućiti ženama ravnopravno sudjelovanje u poduzetničkim aktivnostima

Abstract (english)

Women's entrepreneurship, while crucial for economic growth and innovation, faces a range of specific challenges that make it difficult for women to successfully manage and grow their businesses. Key challenges include access to financial resources, a lack of business networks and resources, as well as social and cultural prejudices. To address the obstacles faced by women entrepreneurs, various initiatives and programs provide financial and non-financial support, such as mentoring, educational programs, and access to funding. Although more women are choosing to enter entrepreneurship, these barriers continue to hinder their path to success. Therefore, systematic changes are needed, including opportunities for financing, support, and the removal of gender-based barriers to enable women to participate equally in entrepreneurship and the economy. Despite significant progress, there is still room for further development. Gender disparities in entrepreneurship remain, highlighting the need for continued efforts to promote gender equality and create conditions that will allow women to fully participate in entrepreneurial activities.
