Women’s entrepreneurship is more difficult than men’s because they have to face the double journey. Taking care of the kids, taking care of the house and still being successful doesn’t seem like a formula for making the equation work.

First, we will see that this equation does close, with the examples of women that we will have in this article. However, we know that the path is not easy, because we still have other responsibilities besides the double journey. Being a woman is having less access to investments and not being taken seriously when we go into areas that are not food or beauty.
