Women’s Entrepreneurship in Rural Greece
Summary. In rural Greece, women entrepreneurs operate primarily as solo business owners or through cooperatives, focusing on direct consumer sales. While solo enterprises dominate, they struggle with survival and succession. Women's cooperatives, though created top-down, show promise as sustainable models. The paper recommends Greek policymakers reduce business registration bureaucracy, develop alternative financing, and improve information access to strengthen women's rural entrepreneurship.
