Abstract

Several economic actors argue that gender equality and entrepreneurship would enhance economic, sustainable, and inclusive growth. Following these ideas, most countries are setting up business incubators to improve start-up creation. This article explores the role of French women’s business incubators in the development of female entrepreneurship as a key driver of women’s empowerment and gender equality. We observed some important aspects within women-dedicated business incubators, such as the development of confidence and inspiration through role models, but also a psychological attachment and a focus on mostly traditional female activities.
