Women's resilience in managing businesses offers enormous potential to accelerate national economic recovery. Increasing the number of women-managed MSMEs can absorb labor and reduce unemployment. However, women-owned businesses still struggle to grow. The majority of women-owned businesses are micro and small businesses. This is because women entrepreneurs still face various obstacles in running their businesses. It is crucial to understand the factors and characteristics that contribute to women's success in entrepreneurship in order to create a supportive environment for growth and unlock their full potential in entrepreneurship.
