Women entrepreneurship has developed fast in recent years and about one-third of entrepreneurs in the world are now women. However, the rates of women entrepreneurs are lower than male entrepreneurs and the situation of male dominated market has not changed at all. As long as the problem of gender bias remains unchanged, women's entrepreneurship will not really develop in the mainstream.
With the usage of data to analyze the facts about women entrepreneurship can we find that the developing countries have lower entrepreneurship and female entrepreneurship rates than developed countries, partly because of the rural areas take greater proportion in developing countries. The rural areas are far from new network information era and cannot be attached to anti-conventional notions about women stay in family.
However, women entrepreneurs cannot only enhance the legitimate position of women in society, but also can make significant contribution to the world. Therefore, as the representatives of our generation, it is responsible for us to spread the reasonable and appropriate ideas about female entrepreneurship and encourage more people to accept it. Doing this can make the future of female entrepreneurship promising and this can contribute the equality of gender.
