The Intersection of Culture Gender and Technology A Barrier for Women Entrepreneurs

Cultural norms and gender roles play a substantial role in exacerbating the digital divide for women entrepreneurs. In many societies, women are less encouraged or even actively discouraged from pursuing education and careers in technology fields. These cultural barriers, combined with the overall digital divide, create a significant obstacle for women looking to launch or grow business ventures in the digital space. Tackling these cultural issues is crucial for creating a more inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem.
