abstract: female entrepreneurship is a growing segment in the context of developing countries and has the potential to become a driving force for economic development. however, research suggests that females are less inclined toward entrepreneurship when compared to their male counterparts. this fact is related to a complex mix of causes also rooted in the economic and social-cultural environment. the study highlights how a strong and supportive education system to some extent may reduce the perception of potential barriers for entrepreneurship. conversely, an educational system lacking a supportive environment and concrete initiatives can deeply affect and worsen the fears of engaging in entrepreneurship amongst female students.
