“…In recent years, various investigations have been carried out on the most relevant factors that affect or promote female entrepreneurship, among which stand out: motivation (Modarresi et al 2016;Devece et al 2016); opportunities (Davidsson 2015;Garud and Giuliani 2013;Gupta et al 2014;Warnecke 2014); intentions (Entrialgo and Iglesias, 2017;Jiang and Wang 2014;Schlaegel and Koenig 2014), conflicts between work and family roles (Thébaud 2015;Agarwal and Lenka 2015;Poggesi et al 2015;Powell and Eddleston 2013;Eddleston and Powell 2012), propensity to become an entrepreneur (Greene et la. 2013;Morales-Urrutia et al 2022), relationship networks (Ortiz-Walter et al 2015), financial limitations (Kanze et al 2018), gender (Eddleston et al 2016;Langevang et al 2015), institutions (Martin et al 2015), organizational level (Brush et al 2019); networks (McAdam et al 2018;Neumeyer et al 2018); entrepreneurial education, social entrepreneurship and the socio-cultural context (Cardella et al 2020) Female entrepreneurial activity could be an optimal alternative to the current conditions of unemployment and labor market inequalities. However, related literature and empirical evidence show that on average women generate less income and are underrepresented in certain economic sectors.…”

Resumo The objective of the study is to analyze female entrepreneurship in eighteen countries in America and Europe during the period 2003 to 2015, identifying some factors associated with it. It focuses on the New Institutional Economics, which considers the role played by institutions (formal and informal) in the materialization of entrepreneurship. The study uses a multivariate statistical analysis based on two different sources (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor and World Bank) to explain the phenomenon based on various institutional factors (financing, government programs and policies, social and cultural aspects, administrative procedures, corruption). The results reveal some factors associated with female entrepreneurship, highlighting socio-cultural conditions, government policies, knowledge and skills of female entrepreneurs. These findings provide information derived from various policy adjustments and changes related to female entrepreneurship.

PurposeIndia has witnessed a significant surge in internet users in recent years, creating an ideal environment for E-entrepreneurship. With the rise of E-commerce and the growth of the digital economy, there is tremendous potential for online businesses in developing nations. Our study outlines the behavioral, cognitive, and environmental aspects shaping students' E-entrepreneurial intentions (EEI).Design/methodology/approachOur study incorporated structural equation modeling (SEM), social cognitive theory (SCT), and entrepreneurial event model (EEM) to evaluate the EEI of 460 students from India's top five engineering institutes. The direct and indirect linkages in the model were examined by employing mediation and moderation analysis.FindingsOur findings reveal that behavioral, environmental, and cognitive factors facilitate evaluating feasibility, further igniting students' EEI. The cognitive factors and E-entrepreneurial feasibility (EEF) mediate the relationship between the underlying constructs. Furthermore, financial resource availability (FRA) strengthens, and loss aversion bias(LAB) weakens the linkage between EEF and EEM.Research limitations/implicationsThe study's findings may benefit online innovation communities, potential technopreneurs, financial institutions, and policymakers in improving the entrepreneurial ecosystem.Originality/valueThe study integrates psychological and sociological perspectives to understand the key facilitators of EEF and EEI. The study combines SCT and the EEM by appending crucial constructs such as FRA and LAB to broaden the horizons of EEI.
