Letter from the Editor-in-Chief 
 
Welcome to the first issue of the Journal of Women's 
Entrepreneurship and Education (JWE) in 2009. This is 
second annual Journal that I edited, but the first one 
which will be published in hard copy version.  
There is no doubt, that the progress made by women, in 
entrepreneurship activities around the world represent an 
important factor to be taken into consideration when 
studying economic development and social progress. 

Namely, entrepreneurship represents an appropriate opportunity for women all 
over the world, as entrepreneurship responds flexibly to entry, change and 
innovation. Because that a lot of countries see women entrepreneurs in SMEs as a 
hope for providing new blood to the economy.  
At present, women represent more than one third of all people involved in 
entrepreneurship activities around the world. Different theoretical approaches to 
female entrepreneurship show that this field of research is considered very broad. 
According to different theoretical approaches are offered different perspectives 
through which we can expand and challenge our understanding of the women’s 
entrepreneurship and education. The most of them will be consider and discuss.  
JWE welcomes articles from academicians and professionals from all areas 
related to the outline. It is one of the first international Journal in this field of 
research. In addition, I expect that it will be also the first one which will appear 
on the ISI list among the world’s most prestigious scientific journals. 
The goal of this Journal is to offer more ways of encouraging entrepreneurship, 
including the role of the education system, developing positive attitudes and an 
active approach towards female entrepreneurship.  
Journal of Women's Entrepreneurship and Education is published two times a 
year, April and October. As founder and editor in chief I shall oversee all 
activities necessary to ensure that each issue of the Journal is released in a timely 
manner. 
I eagerly await your feedback on this year's Journal and your worth contribution 
with your articles. 
 
Sincerely, 
 
Prof. dr Mirjana Radović-Marković
