Sažetak
Innovative businesses are an elite minority in any developed economy, and are essential for building sustainable competitiveness, creating new jobs, well being and fair societal infrastructure. Both women and men are expected to bring innovation in all aspects of our lives, but there are less women in those activities across the world than it would be expected according to the women's population share. This is also case in Croatia, a country experiencing mega changes of the political, economic, and social system after the 1991 splitting of former Yugoslavia, the human and material devastation during 1991-1995 war and the slowest path of getting out of the 2008 economic crisis. The aim of this analysis was to identify statistically relevant influencers in understanding gender- sensitive patterns of innovativeness in Croatian economy. The analysis developed in this study contributed to answering many questions, but as research always does, many new questions emerged.
