Abstract: Entrepreneurial activity by women in the China has become more active in recent years with much greater attention being paid within and outside of China. Academic research has sought to describe current conditions and future trends; however, there has been little systematic research done in this area. The aim of this paper is to provide a clear picture of the general background and characteristics of Chinese female entrepreneurship based on Eastern cultural features. In addition, an entrepreneurial conceptual model about mainland Chinese women's entrepreneurial activity is presented and a case study is used for illustration.

Keywords: business; emerging markets; female entrepreneurs; women entrepreneurship; Chinese institutions; push-pull factors; China; institutional environment; internal characteristics; entrepreneurial activity; culture; conceptual modelling. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
