Abstract: This is a comprehensive Status Quo Report based on a seminal study of 80 female startups from Saudi Arabia. It emerges as a major source of information in more than 12 years. Very few studies on the topic have been carried out since then. It is one of the largest studies carried out yet in the area and consists of 80 female start-ups and 07 industrial sectors. It examines the motherhood effects, subtleties and ecosystem challenges, identifies play between push and pull factors to start up. The study provides in-depth understanding on society, husband and family role in female start-ups success and failures. The study also identifies that the women in Saudi Arabia are accelerating at a rapid pace in pursuit of achieving excellence and meeting the challenges in the entrepreneurship ecosystem head on. On their way to success there are trials and tribulations that the strategic / policy level of ecosystem is endeavouring to resolve and assist the vibrant and dynamic breed of startups.
