Author: Shalini Gupta

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship is marked by one’s ability to engage in business ventures. With growth of industry and globalization many new businesses are coming up. Since ancient days women have been prejudiced to restrict themselves to household. Though some entrepreneurs among women have been there in old days also but in general business was supposed men’s domain. This paper tries to analyse role of women as successful entrepreneurs. It puts forth the present global and Indian scenario of participation of women in business. An analysis of global and Indian scenario reveals that recent years have shown tremendous rise in percentage of women entrepreneurs but still a lot more is yet to be done so as to encourage women to be successful entrepreneurs. It is seen that even with all responsibilities of family, women are still able to manage well as entrepreneurs. Some possible methods have also been suggested which might help in improving the present condition and hopefully coming years will witness a greater proportion of women as entrepreneurs.
