Abstract
Finally, this chapter by Carme Moreno-Gavara and Ana Isabel Jimenéz-Zarco brings together the main conclusions of this volume. In general terms, despite the existing difficulties, female entrepreneurship offers significant opportunities, not only for this group but also, at an economic and social level, for the whole territory. The use of the territory’s natural resources increases the attractiveness of a developing industrial network led by women. Now it only remains for local and international organizations to understand the situation, and put in place the measures required for its further development.
