The emergence of Women Entrepreneurs and their contribution to the national economy is quite visible in India. The number of Women Entrepreneurs has grown over a period of time, especially in the 1990s. Women Entrepreneurs need to be lauded for their increased utilization of modern technology, increased investments, finding a niche in the export market, creating a sizable employment for others and setting the trend for other women entrepreneurs in the organized sector. Entrepreneurship gives good exposure to both men and women and gives all levels of empowerment such as social, economic, political, psychological and cultural. The present study focuses on to portray the profile of women entrepreneurs, to examine the nature and extent of family influence to Women Entrepreneurs and to identify the reason for taking up women entrepreneurs
