The objective of this research is to analyze the participation of women in family businesses located in the city of Cañar in Ecuador. A descriptive non-experimental field study was carried out to analyze women's participation in family businesses. In terms of gender barriers, the encouraging 87% who do not perceive major difficulties in starting a business because they are women point to a positive change in the perception and gradual overcoming of gender barriers in the business environment. This result suggests an environment conducive to female entrepreneurial development, reflecting a positive evolution towards equal opportunities. Likewise, the 94% who do not face greater difficulties in obtaining financing due to their status as women underscores a gradual change towards equity in access to financial resources. These results offer an encouraging picture that supports the role and positive perception of women in business, marking a significant advance towards building a more inclusive and equitable environment.
