Hispanic Women Entrepreneurs: Human Capital, Financial Capital, And Network Structure Relationships

Abstract

In this paper, Hispanic women entrepreneurs are examined through a variety of perspectives.  First, the analysis presented is an overview of miscellaneous characteristics, including financial information, age and marital status.  The analysis continues with a look at the relationships between human capital, financial capital and network structures for the Hispanic women entrepreneurs.  The study thus serves three purposes.  First, it explores in depth areas of women entrepreneurship that are not always given an extensive focus; namely human capital and network structures.  Second, it delineates how these dimensions are measured and are related to each other.  Finally, it adds to the limited body of research on Hispanic women entrepreneurs, providing additional illumination for this sector.
