摘要
Participation of women entrepreneurs is getting more important in the transformation of social interactions along the gender lines. Majority of previous studies focus on entrepreneurs in general, thus leaving a gap for the current study to concentrate in women entrepreneurs. Therefore, this paper aims to inform and understand of biotechnology women entrepreneurs' motivation and challenges in their businesses. A qualitative research approach using in-depth interviews with follow-up written exercises were adopted.
