The purpose of this eBook is to bring together studies that platform the value of women entrepreneurs and their businesses in the global context. In doing so, the authors have garnered evidence that sheds light on the varied patterns and styles of female entrepreneurship that are emerging in economies as diverse as the UK, Sweden and Botswana. Individually, these studies explore particular gender shifts in the locus of entrepreneurial power that have thus far remained implicit. Collectively, the works highlight that although women continue to engage successfully in urban corporate and 'for profit' entrepreneurship, they are equally effective as entrepreneurs in small, rural and community enterprises; the latter are, arguably, less glamorous and harder to measure, and as a consequence, remain under-researched.
