The book focuses on elementary and important issues of entrepreneurship and women in any economy.Prof. Anne KovalainenSchool of EconomicsUniversity of Turku, FinlandThe book focuses on three NGOs and their activities in enhancing and promoting women’s entrepreneurial activities in three different areas in India. The empirical material consists of interview materials as well as background data and reports, national level statistics and other figures that are used to describe the Indian situation in general, and specifically those conditions from where women’s entrepreneurial activities arise, such as gender equality and legislation frameworks.
