Resumo(s)

Entrepreneurship is one of the most dynamic features of modern economies and is an essential driver of growth. Still, significantly fewer women than men are founding new businesses today, and research has shown that they receive less capital from investors than male entrepreneurs. Gender bias could explain the apparent disadvantage of female entrepreneurs. This study presents a framework to explore further the effects and driving forces that lead female entrepreneurs to receive less VC funding. The objective is to aid women in leveling the playing field between female and male entrepreneurs
