This paper summarizes the evidence base on women’s entrepreneurship
and serves as an update to the 2022 version, Supporting Women
Entrepreneurs in Developing Countries: What Works?
This paper presents findings from a comprehensive literature review
focused on women-owned and led small and medium enterprises (WSMEs).
Structured around the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative’s Theory
of Change, it synthesizes evidence across four key areas—finance, skills
and networks, markets and technology, and the enabling environment—
highlighting both what we know and where evidence gaps remain. Its
main contribution is a conceptual and dynamic mapping of the literature,
classifying the strength and direction of evidence across interventions.
