Abstract

This chapter is dedicated to women entrepreneurship in the Republic of Croatia. Considered from a historical perspective or its current challenges, women entrepreneurship distinguishes itself as a vital part of the national economy. On their path to becoming entrepreneurs, women are faced with numerous obstacles and are motivated by various factors. By discovering and committing to analyze these problems and motivations, we are able to provide support programs, which will be effective in further developing women entrepreneurship.
