Where do the world's most entrepreneurial women live?

This interactive visualizes female entrepreneurship around the world. Run your cursor over the spectrum to see the numbers of entrepreneurs in 40 countries, as well as entrepreneurs as a percentage of the working-age population. Much of the data is not what you'd expect: Countries like Mexico score highly, with ten times more female entrepreneurs than, say, Sweden. Expert analysis will pop up for the countries in color to help you make sense of the numbers.
