  • Gender differences in entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial activity in part of the Danube region
    Tominc, Polona ; Rebernik, Miroslav
    The paper describes gender differences in entrepreneurial attitudes and activity in 8 countries of the Danube region. The research results indicate that in all the countries analysed fewer women the ... men believe that promising business opportunities exist in their environment; fewer women are confident in their entrepreneurial skills, knowledge, and experiences; and more women indicate the fear of failure, which would prevent them from starting a business. In all the countries analysed, women are also less entrepreneurially active than men. When analyzing entrepreneurial education and training in 8 countries of the Danube region, the research results suggest that those who received formal and/or informal entrepreneurial education and training are on average more likely to start a business; this holds true for both genders. On average, 1 in 5 adult men and 1 in 8 adult women received formal entrepreneurship education and training. Meanwhile, on average, 1 in 7 men and 1 in 10 women received some informal training for entrepreneurship. Gender differences are significant.
