More than a third of women have experienced gender discrimination while running their business. A poll of 500 female small business owners found 35 per cent have faced biased behaviour at work, with 53 per cent feeling pressure to prove themselves more than their male counterparts. It also emerged 47 per cent believe there are more risks when setting up a business as a woman due to not being taken seriously, balancing professional and personal life, and imposter syndrome - the persistent inability to believe that one’s success is deserved. The research comes against the backdrop of a decline in the number of women business owners as, according to Government research of 7,800 small businesses, found only 15 per cent were owned or led by women in 2023, down from 18 per cent in 2022 and 19 per cent in 2021.
