Recent stats indicate that more than 50% of new businesses started are done so by women.   As a father of two daughters,  I am very pleased by this.  It means that they will have the potential for opportunity of their own making.   Is a business started by women any different than one started by a man?   I don't know.  I am going to run a poll on my linked in site to get people's take.   Are there different goals,  different motivations,  different ways of doing things?   What do you think?
