Sažetak
Entrepreneurship is a global phenomenon developing all around the world. However, different countries differ in characteristics of entrepreneurship development: level and intensity of entrepreneurial activities, entrepreneurial behavior, women participation in entrepreneurial activities, and many others. Several studies have indicated that these differences can be ascribed to national culture characteristics. However, there is a notable lack of studies on both culture impact on entrepreneurship in developing countries, especially in Africa, and on women entrepreneurship in developing countries. The aim of this study is to bridge this gap and provide a deeper understanding of women entrepreneurship in Nigeria in the context of its national culture. There are several national culture models and here we use Hofstede national culture model. The research is based on qualitative approach. Using available secondary data and existing research results, we analyze them according to the Hofstede national culture profile of Nigeria. Nigeria scores very high on power distance, indulgence and masculinity and very low on individualism and long-term orientation. These characteristics are also reflected in some specific characteristics of women entrepreneurship thus confirming the relation between national culture and women entrepreneurship development in Nigeria.
