There are only limited number of studies that examine the development of women entrepreneurs in Indonesia. There are at least two main reasons why the development of women entrepreneurs in Indonesia needs to be examined. First, national and West Java data on the number of women entrepreneurs and their main characteristics are very limited. Second, public interest in women entrepreneurs in Indonesia has just been revealed after the Asian financial crisis was driven primarily by the introduction of the MDGs. The purpose of this study is to reveal the typology of West-Javanese women entrepreneurs engaged in fashion. The research employed explanatory survey. Research conducted on womenpreneur who manages SMEs of fashion in West Java. The population consists of 452 people and 200 of them were taken as the sample by using proportional random sampling technique. The typology of women entrepreneurs was analyzed based on the factors of age, marital status, education, main occupation, and type of business ownership. The results show that the fashion womenpreneur typology in West Java covers young age, highly educated, unmarried, and owning company. Therefore, the West Java Government needs to develop and pay attention to the potential of womenpreneur in West Java because they can help the program of family poverty alleviation.

Hsua, Roberts and Eesley (2007), for example, in an extensive study of alumni from MIT, USA, found that the mean age dropped from 40 years in the 1950's to 28 years in the 1990's.…”

Creative entrepreneurship has gained ground in recent years with the advent of creative industries. The capabilitiesto set targets and individually self-regulate have been indicated as predictors of entrepreneurship. This study aims to identify validity characteristics of a self-regulation scale and to test if score differences are related to whether or not one is an entrepreneur, personalcharacteristics, or the activity sector. A total of 596 professionals from creative industries in Brazil participated in this study. The self-control and self-management scale (SCMS) has been applied; it has been translated and adapted to Portuguese. Cross-validation analysis has been done. The results support the three-factor structure of the scale. Entrepreneurs tended to indicate higher means in the self-evaluation factor than non-entrepreneurs. Activity sector, gender and schooling demonstrated a significant difference in the self-monitoring factor.
