Summary/Abstract: When it comes to follow the path of entrepreneurship, there are several factors influencing thedecision of female entrepreneurs. The present study aimed to research the importance andinfluence that two categories of factors are exerting on this decision, as in regards to femaleentrepreneurs that are Romanian. Through using a questionnaire that evaluated several aspectsof those influencing factors grouped as push and pull factors, the results were processed in theSPSS software via various methods such as Correlation tests, Pearson correlation, Factoranalysis and linear regression. Those lead to the conclusion that for our particular sample ofRomanian female entrepreneurs there are not applicable the same results as the theory implies.In our case, the sample is more focused and motivated by intrinsic benefits rather than extrinsicones, choosing the entrepreneurial path due to pull factors rather than push ones as the specialtyliterature reflects.
