“…In spite of these weaknesses, these studies provide a solid foundation for further research on female entrepreneurial activity. Some of the definitions of a female entrepreneur used in academic circles are: women who found a company (Bennett&Dann, 2000;Hisrich 1986;Inman, 2000;) of the ownership (whether it is inherited, purchased, or other) (Aidis, 2002;Izyumov&Razumnova, 2000); women who employ others (Hisrich&Fulop, 1994;Inman, 2000;Smith-Hunter, 2003).Some authors also take into account selfemployed women who do not employ others (Aidis, 2002;Izyumov&Razumnova, 2000). Women entrepreneurs are women who both own and manage the company (Aidis, 2002;Inman, 2000;Lee-Gosselin&Grise, 1990);are women who have established a company with the aim of making a profit and growth (Bennett &Dann, 2000), including the owners of small companies who started their business in order to realize their ambitions and where their business generates their main source of income and consumes most of their time.…”
