Abstract
This study explores the characteristics of female entrepreneurship by focusing on entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial experience. In specific, this paper identifies the factors affecting women’s entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial experience, and compares them to their male counterpart. By using a nationally representative survey on entrepreneurship, this paper finds that there are gender differences in the factors and their influences on entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial experience. In the case of women, entrepreneurial orientation and competencies are less likely to lead to the actual firm creation. Similarly, the level of education, as a social contextual factor, has a positive influence on women’s entrepreneurial intention, but it does not lead to entrepreneurial experience. Scholarly and practical implications are discussed.
