Abstract: This paper is about women entrepreneurs in Albania, conditions for women entrepreneurship, perspectives for development and an array of problems that women entrepreneurs are facing. In order to gain a better picture of current motives, problems and perspectives of Albanian women in entrepreneurship, a survey was conducted during May–June 2014 to complement secondary sources. Respondents were asked about their motives for starting a business, the size of the business they run, revenues, their family status, management problems and the necessary capabilities as perceived by them. We used Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) reports to compare the indicators of entrepreneurial activity between countries in the region.
