Abstract: Abstract The fact that this was stated more than two decades ago data from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor or national monitors show that not much has substantially changed since then. Women’s participation in entrepreneurial activity remains relatively low compared to that of men in most western capitalist countries. Taking intersectionality (i.e., race, age, and sexual orientation) into account, those proportions get sharper. These developments or rather nondevelopments happen despite the fact that entrepreneurial activity has, for a very long time, been translated into economic growth, disruptive innovations, and personal self-fulfillment. And whereas these examples represent different levels of analysis, which are macro-, meso-, and individual levels, it is difficult to treat them separately.
