For a long time, it was believed that entrepreneurship is ''men's business''. Today, woman entrepreneurship is becoming increasingly significant, exhibiting diminishing differences between male and female entrepreneurs. For instance, research shows that it has become the most dynamic economic segment, especially in highly developed countries. Although there isn't a widely accepted definition in Croatia, American definition of woman entrepreneurship specifies a woman enterprise as an economic subject in the property (at least 51%) of a woman who simultaneously controls and leads it. Woman entrepreneurship is also crucial for gender equality, as well as strengthening the capacity for launching entrepreneurial ventures. The goal of this final thesis is to determine the term ''woman entrepreneurship'' with a special overview of the results of the GEM research which, in the last ten years, record a positive growth trend of female entrepreneurs in Croatia.
