Entrepreneurs play a crucial role in the economy by fostering private sector development and driving economic growth through innovation and job creation. Creating a conducive ecosystem for entrepreneurship can significantly enhance the growth of women entrepreneurs, an important yet often untapped source of economic potential. Over the past decade, Indian women have increasingly moved from traditional roles in extended kitchens, handicrafts, and cottage industries to engaging in non-traditional and higher-level entrepreneurial activities. Recognizing this shift, the Indian government's new industrial policy emphasizes the need for specialized entrepreneurial training programs for women, enabling them to start their own ventures. Additionally, financial institutions have established special cells to support women entrepreneurs, facilitating their participation in the entrepreneurial landscape. This study explores the concept of women entrepreneurs and delves into the diverse challenges they face.
