Abstract

This paper explores the current state of female entrepreneurship in Albania and the challenges faced by women entrepreneurs in driving economic growth. Despite progress made in recent years, Albania still lags behind in gender equality, with women entrepreneurs facing significant challenges in accessing finance, training, and markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated these challenges, with women-led businesses disproportionately affected. The promotion of female entrepreneurship has the potential to drive economic growth and reduce gender disparities in Albania, but it requires a concerted effort from policymakers, business support organizations, and society as a whole.
