Abstract

Due to the important contribution of women to economic development, we propose to investigate the factors that affect women entrepreneurs’ success in Saudi Arabia. 271 women in Saudi Arabia participated in the study. A conceptual model is developed, while PLS-SEM software is used for analysis. The findings show a positive association between women’s empowerment as successful entrepreneurs and certain dimensions of entrepreneurial orientation, including economic factors, autonomy, innovativeness, and proactiveness. These findings shed light on the factors that influence women’s ability to become successful entrepreneurs and identify the dimensions and external factors in the entrepreneurial orientation model that are the best predictors of women’s success. This paper contributes to new knowledge on the conditions of women’s entrepreneurship by developing and validating an analytic model for promoting women’s entrepreneurship Saudi Arabia. From a policy perspective, the model can inform the design of training programs to support women’s entrepreneurship in the country. The study has practical implications and suggests future directions for research in this field[Formula: see text]

打破障碍:沙特阿拉伯女性企业家赋权之路
鉴于女性对经济发展的重要贡献,我们建议调查影响沙特阿拉伯女性企业家成功的因素,沙特阿拉伯有271名女性参与了这项研究。建立了概念模型,并利用PLS-SEM软件进行了分析。研究结果表明,女性作为成功企业家的赋权与创业取向的某些维度,包括经济因素、自主性、创新性和主动性之间存在正相关关系。这些发现阐明了影响妇女成为成功企业家能力的因素,并确定了创业导向模型中最能预测妇女成功的维度和外部因素。本文通过开发和验证促进沙特阿拉伯妇女创业的分析模型,为妇女创业的条件提供了新的知识。从政策角度来看,该模型可以为支持该国妇女创业的培训方案的设计提供信息。该研究具有实际意义,并为该领域的研究提出了未来的方向[公式:见文本]
