Abstract
This Concept of micro-entrepreneurship deriving from APEC (Asia Pacific
Economic Cooperation), it is said that the best method to improve women¡¦s economy
is to encourage them by involving into it. Traditionally, Taiwan indigenous peoples
had always earned their living by farming, foresting, fishing, and herding as primary
industries, which relatively caused tribal society an inferior situation and low income.
With recent years of social, industrial, and educational change in structure, the
development of knowledge economic gives indigenous peoples an option to start their
own enterprise, or chances to serve in all walks of life. On the other hand, our
government also makes every effort to popularize to start a enterprise and provides
plural entrepreneurship loans. After effective guiding and assisting, a number of
entrepreneurships grow by 3000 to 5000 cases per year and have higher portions for
women. In 2006, entrepreneurship for women is up to 44.9% and not far from 55.1%
for men.
From 2002 to 2006, Council of Indigenous People, Executive Yuan had issued 822
loan cases in total from Indigenous People Developing Fund, whiled 346¡]40%¡^ were
for women. Therefore, entrepreneurships for indigenous women are growing in
market. In Taiwan, about one hundred thousand small and medium-sized enterprises
establish every year, but only twenty thousand exist. Low capitalization and
less-than-five-people micro enterprises turn over faster. Entrepreneurship is easy,
but holding achievements is hard. Council of Indigenous People, Executive Yuan
had selected 14 successful indigenous women in 2006. This study, thus, focuses onindigenous women who have their own business by using In-Depth Interviewing and
ATLAS.ti software. And we get the result that the key factors for indigenous women
in entrepreneurship are keeping practicing and possessing great sense of mission for
indigenous culture. We have demonstrated with figures of network.
This study finds that when surveying their experiences and progress, responders
recalled the major problems were lack of entrepreneurship capitals (mainly), lack of
turnover capitals, lack of managing experiences, and lack of adaptable talents. Some
would think that government is not a helper but a barrier during entrepreneurship
progress. In the future, government should let it as a mirror when driving indigenous
policies.
