Selin Dilli receives NWO Veni Grant
Posthumus alumna and current member of the Education Committee of the N.W. Posthumus Institute Dr Selin Dilli (Utrecht University) was awarded a Veni Grant by the Dutch Research Council (NWO) for her project ‘The Missing Entrepreneurs? The Diversity of Female Entrepreneurship in Europe, 1900-2020’. Female entrepreneurship is not a recent phenomenon. Nevertheless, we still know little about the historical development of female entrepreneurship, let alone about the explanations behind it. This project will collect new comparable time-series data on female business-owners and innovators in Europe since 1900. Based on this evidence, it will demonstrate the factors that explain the change in female entrepreneurship.
The N.W. Posthumus Institute congratulates Selin with this achievement!
