This paper proposes to analyse the existing differences in women's and men's style of entrepreneurship. The examined the levels of women's and men's participation in entrepreneurial activity in modern national economies. The study dealt with the problem of determining the indicator values, characterizing the early stage of entrepreneurship, mature entrepreneurship as well as quitting business activities. The results of the survey, conducted in 59 countries, through the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor Project, were used as initial information. In the course of the research, nine indicators, characterizing such stages as start-up and mature entrepreneurship, were examined, along with the cessation of this activity. The results indicated that there was gender gap between the indicators of entrepreneurship in majority of countries, implying that women participated in it to a lesser extent than men. |
