There are a myriad of myths that surround entrepreneurship and the world of working women. This morning, I am attending a dialogue session in which we have been reviewing the research that has emerged through the work done by First National Bank and Wits Business School in the last few weeks. Here is a list of myths, tell me what you think.

Myth 1: Women only start businesses because they have to.

Myth 2: Women have poor self efficacy

Myth 3: Women do not see the right opportunities

Myth 4: Boostrap their start-ups

Myth 5: Start 'hobby' businesses

Myth 6: Start Businesses that do not last

Myth 7: Are not well networked

Myth 8: Do not make effective use of services

Myth 9: Don't want to grow their business

Myth 10: Don't innovate

Myth 11: Do not benefit from policy aimed at support

Myth 12:  Women entrepreneurs are not supported by SA culture
