Abstract
An independent review into women in entrepreneurship in Scotland, authored by Ana Stewart and Mark Logan. Based on thorough data analysis and stakeholder engagement the report's recommendations seek to address the root causes of female under-participation in entrepreneurship. The report was commissioned to consider the under-participation of women in entrepreneurship, but the recommendations have wider applicability. This is because many of the root-cause issues affecting entrepreneurial under-participation as regards gender also affect other under-represented groups. For example, from the research conducted for this report, it was clear that some of the factors that undermine the participation of women in entrepreneurship also apply to demographics such as recent migrant groups, rural entrepreneurs and those located within disadvantaged urban areas, and that they are further amplified at their intersection. Accordingly, it is likely that, in some instances, the recommendations made in this report will also have utility in raising participation rates within these other demographics. However, it is beyond the scope of this report to fully explore all under-participating demographics, and we recommend that follow-on work is performed in these areas.
