Summary/Abstract: Entrepreneurial orientation (EO), a popular concept in science works and management theories, is also often used to advance the company in terms of performance. Recently, many scholars analyzed the relationship between EO and performance. However, the reading and analysis of this relationship by gender remains limited. In the earlier studies, theorists agree that women entrepreneurs are less successful than their male colleagues with lower levels of EO. This study seeks to examine whether gender differences persist in the study of the relationship between EO and performance. Interestingly, the results indicate that gender difference does not moderate the relationship between OE and performance.
