The growing prominence of emerging markets has led to increased recognition of the distinct value that social entrepreneurship offers to the community in recent years. The field of women's entrepreneurship has experienced significant development. Early research indicates that women's inclusive, sympathetic, and emotional traits are more suitable for leading social entrepreneurship. However, researches on gender in social entrepreneurship remain limited,, necessitating further investigation by a greater number of experts. This paper uses a literature review and case study approach to explore the role and influence of female entrepreneurs in social entrepreneurship. Three cases of women social entrepreneurs from different cultural contexts in China and India are mentioned in the article, providing an opportunity for conducting cross-cultural researches on social entrepreneurship. The article also analyses the importance of social networks for female entrepreneurs, including support from family, partners, and friends. This study offers valuable research insights on the impact of social networks on the decision-making process, resource accessibility, and likelihood of success for women entrepreneurs. This study provides useful insights into the policy measures that should be implemented by the government, the community, and banks, such as relaxing policy restrictions, eliminating stereotypes and creating more opportunities, thus helping more women to blossom on the path of social entrepreneurship.
