This paper builds on an earlier paper by Dr Falih Alsaaty, titled “ The Entrepreneurial Spirit of the Women in the United States: Trends and Prospects†. The earlier study explored the phenomenon of entrepreneurial spirit of the women, the different sectors where the entrepreneurship is focused, the status of minority women owned firms vs women owned firms in general and found that women entrepreneurship in general is growing and the growth was mostly in micro enterprises. Our present study attempts to explore the root causes of the growth of minority women entrepreneurship by looking into such factors as divorce rates , availability of funds for small minority owned businesses, overall growth of minority population, growth and enrollment increase in entrepreneurship programs across colleges in the United States.
