Description
Summary:<p dir="ltr">The purpose of this paper is to examine the factors that affect the decision of university female students to start a business in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Most of the existing research focuses on exploring the challenges female entrepreneurs face <i>after</i> they start a business, but no research has investigated the challenges they encounter <i>before</i> they start a business. A total of 507 responses were collected from six universities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Findings show that knowledge about starting a business is the most influential factor that motivates female students to establish their own business.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Transnational Management<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15475778.2019.1682769" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15475778.2019.1682769</a></p>
