Resumo(s)
Although the gender gap in entrepreneurship has been discussed extensively in research, factors originating from the internet have barely been considered to date .As professional networking sites become increasingly popular in the emerging remote working society, a better understanding of founders behaviour on these sites is crucial. This work there fore provides insights in to possible differences between female and male founders profiles and actions on LinkedIn. A sample of 1284 European early-stage founders was tested to validate the proposed hypothesis. The results confirm differences in the activity and willingness to self-report information, differences in founders’ networking behaviour, however, proved insignificant.
