The entrepreneur is an economic man, who tries to maximize his profits by innovation. Innovation involves problem solving and entrepreneur gets satisfaction from using capabilities in attacking problems. There are around seven lakh villages in India and also that more than 70% of our population that live in villages half are women. Rural women represent a sizeable percentage of labor force in our country, yet they have not been brought under the main stream of development. The rural women may be mobilized and may lead the nation towards the path of progress and prosperity.
