| Summary: | This report presents the results of
various experimental studies that try to address, from
different perspectives, the challenges of supporting the
growth and profitability of women entrepreneurs. In Mexico,
women tend to be overrepresented in the category of
microentrepreneurs, who often have limited access to
productive resources and networks. The report addresses two
fundamental issues. First, it addresses the issue of how to
improve performance and profitability. The second issue
focuses on the drivers and the implications of sectoral
barriers to women entrepreneurs. For each one of these
interventions, the report examines their cost-effectiveness
and return on investment (ROI). Both programs exhibit high
ROI. Based on the findings, this report concludes that both
programs should be available as part of a larger portfolio
of interventions to support women with small enterprises. |
