Social Capital Is the ‘Glue’ for Women-Owned Firms

Why is social capital so important for women? Your social capital consists of networks and contacts that can help you secure information, expertise, opportunities, and needed resources such as financial capital. Traditionally, women entrepreneurs have not been a part of many important “old boys” networks in the world of business, and it is only recently that they have begun to penetrate those networks while also building their own. Thus, women are still playing “catch-up” on the social capital front.
