Can entrepreneurs have children and succeed?

A new international survey suggests founders delay or limit having children due to business pressures.

Resource Description

An international survey of 55 startup founders, CEOs, operators, and aspiring founders across 9 countries explores how entrepreneurship affects decisions around having children. Respondents were 53% women and 46% men, 62% founders and 20% aspiring founders, with 69% already parents and 31% without children. The findings point to real pressure on founders to delay or limit family plans because of the demands of building a business.
