Abstract

This chapter analysis female international entrepreneurship in emerging economies and articulates its correlation in consideration of the growing influence of emerging markets in the global economy. One of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals set out in the UN Sustainable Development Plan 2030 is gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls (United Nations 2018). Female entrepreneurs play an essential role in the growth process of a country, yet female entrepreneurs are underrepresented across the globe, as they face various obstacles during the founding process. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of institutions and institutional factors in shaping women's international entrepreneurship in emerging economies. For this purpose, research data related to 12 emerging economies were extracted from international reports that provided economic indicators and entrepreneurship of countries based on survey data and were analyzed using structural equation modelling with SmartPLS3. Women's entrepreneurship research is a growing trend in a wide range of international entrepreneurship and is methodologically diverse. Our review also shows that research on women's international entrepreneurship has a limited presence in top journals. In this study, we intend to evaluate the relationship between institutional factors and international women entrepreneurship in emerging economies.
