Abstract:
Women Entrepreneurship Development has gained importance and priority over the last decade. Many women have gone in for an entrepreneurial career as prospective equal partners with men in the industrial and economic growth of the country. Indeed, in today's world women's role is no longer limited to that of a homemaker. They have emerged also as entrepreneurs in their own right, having employing many people, men and women. The transformation has been slow but steady. "The changing social and economic scene of the sixties and seventies encouraged women to venture out of the confines of home, to take up jobs and share financial responsibilities of the family. But scarcity of suitable employment opportunities, non-flexibility of working hours, limitations on mobility and a desire for economic and social independence forced more and more women, especially over the last decade, to look for newer avenues of income generation and self-expression through careers in business and industry.
