Women Tech Entrepreneurship in India

Authors: Shrivastava, M.

Pages: 61-73

DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-83792-1_4

Abstract:

Globally, the underrepresentation of women entrepreneurs in technology is a challenge. Little is known about the nature of women's entrepreneurship in developing countries, as most studies focus on the developed world (Panda, 2018; Roomi et al. 2018). India is a compelling context for studying women entrepreneurship with its diversity, economic power and complex socio-cultural norms. This chapter, in particular, examines women tech entrepreneurship in India to underscore the challenges and opportunities shaping women entrepreneurship. In the process, it initiates a new discourse on women tech entrepreneurship in developing countries.
