description:

Some of the women entrepreneurs interviewed in Qatar took up business with the permission of their husbands and relied on male members of their family (of birth of or marriage) for technical know-how, business space, and finance. In the Arab context, some examination of family enterprises rather than the Start and Improve Your Business (SIYB) assumption that enterprises are only ever the work of individuals would be useful both for the appearance and the substance of the programme especially in Arab countries.
