Yes, female entrepreneurs face more challenges on a systematic level than their male counterparts. This is such an important topic to write about! Having support and role models is important to help pave the way for success for aspiring or novice female entrepreneurs. As you wrote, women's success can also help promote the economic success and GDP of the overall country, so it is in every nation's best interest to help support women having the education, skills, and support that they need to be successful. There have been studies that show that a nation's GDP tends to higher when women have more access to birth control. So we are also seeing this issue in the US again; women need to be given bodily autonomy to help realize the levels of success we are capable of, in addition to general education and economic and political support.
