CARREER CHOICE IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP AMONG FEMAL ENTREPRENEURS

As part of her master’s thesis in Business Administration (AdeKUS), Sheetal Ganput has conducted research into career choice in entrepreneurship among the young successful female entrepreneurs in Suriname. Observation has shown that female entrepreneurship is increasing in Suriname.

The social media channels (LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram) looked at new businesses started by women. On Facebook there are for example “groups” called “Female Entrepreneurs in Suriname”, “Ladies Talk”, “Academy for Women Entrepreneurs Suriname” and “Ondernemen 2020 Suriname” where the various entrepreneurs actively participate.
Sheetal chose to investigate the differences and similarities that drive women to start a business. Why do they want a career in entrepreneurship? Why do they want their own business?
