This paper presents a comprehensive review of women’s inclusiveness in entrepreneurship, with particular emphasis on the role of government schemes in empowering women entrepreneurs. It examines key barriers faced by women in accessing these schemes, including financial, technological, managerial, and marketing challenges. The review further explores how these dimensions of inclusiveness influence the performance, growth, and sustainability of women-led enterprises across different regional and sectoral contexts. Drawing on a synthesis of empirical research and policy evaluations, the study identifies significant gaps in the design and implementation of government programs. While notable progress has been made, findings reveal that structural inequalities and institutional inefficiencies continue to limit equitable access for women entrepreneurs, particularly in rural and marginalized communities. The paper underscores the need for more targeted, integrated, and gender-responsive interventions to enhance outreach, digital literacy, access to credit, mentorship, and market linkages. Additionally, it highlights future research directions, emphasizing the importance of intersectionality and longitudinal studies to evaluate long-term program effectiveness. By offering actionable recommendations and a theoretical framework, this review contributes to the policy discourse on inclusive entrepreneurship and provides valuable insights for stakeholders seeking to build a more equitable and sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystem for women.
