Vox Pop on Women in Business

Just doing a quick Vox Pop on Female Entrepreneurship and need responses by Monday, 7 December at 11am.

Please let me know if you have any opinions you would like to share on the following issues.

• What is the motivation for women setting up in business, and how this does (or doesn’t, as the case may be) differ from their male counterparts?
• What has your experience been like as the female owners of successful businesses ­benefits, drawbacks etc?
• What is your advice to other women who may be thinking of setting out on their own?  
• What impact did the boom years have on female entrepreneurship, and business practices generally, in Ireland ­ and what are their expectations for the months ahead, now that we are in recession?
• Has the lengthened maternity leave been a barrier to women's progress in business?
• How the recession is having an impact on your business?
   

Thanks in advance for your cooperation. Please email your opinions to Eibhlin Curley, ecurley@dceb.ie before 11am on Monday 7 December.
