Self-Selecting Group Of Women

Self-Selecting Group Of Women


The high-tech entrepreneurs were extremely well qualified and had spent a number of years studying and working in a male-dominated environment in a foreign country. They were part of a small self-selecting group of women who had chosen to go against traditional norms by choosing to be trained as engineers and scientists and leaving their home country in the pursuit of higher education abroad. The women entrepreneurs in the non-high sectors were less well endowed in terms of human capital, but possessed social capital in the form of a network of contacts and support from within their own ethnic community.
