Women entrepreneurs face the same challenges as other entrepreneurs. However, cultural issues such as access to funding and lack of adequate training and resources are not the only other issues experienced at a higher frequency than men. Work life balance for women with families comes into play in a way that men don't experience.

The strength of the entrepreneurial mindset means that even social issues can be addressed using best business practices. By combining elements of business entrepreneurism, social issues can reap similar gains in advancing their cause.
