Abstract
This article is devoted to the study of the theoretical and methodological foundations and conceptual models for the development of women’s entrepreneurship in international and regional practice. Research indicates that women’s entrepreneurship in many countries is characterized by dynamic variability, while gender disparities still persist. In the context of Central Asia, women are actively involved in startup projects, and their entry into business activities is encouraged through both governmental and international support programs. At the same time, regional experts emphasize that the full inclusion of women in economic activity can contribute significantly to national economic growth. In the context of Uzbekistan, the number of women entrepreneurs has increased markedly in recent years, demonstrating the effectiveness of state policy measures and gender-sensitive support mechanisms. In the article, global and national statistical data, regional experiences, and innovative initiatives are analyzed to identify the strategic importance of women’s entrepreneurship for economic growth, job creation, and gender inclusion. Based on this analysis, the article develops recommendations aimed at strengthening state policy, ensuring access to financial resources, promoting innovative and technological startups, and fostering international cooperation. This study contributes to identifying the social as well as macroeconomic effectiveness of promoting women’s entrepreneurship and aids in improving policy strategies.
