The aim of this master’s degree thesis is to replicate the Patrcia Cortes’ research, conducted in US, about the positive impact of low-skilled immigrated women on the female participation in the labor market. In particular, this paper wants to verify if there is a positive correlation between the survival rate of female-led innovative startups, the presence of low-skilled immigrated women and the presence of care services such as nurseries and early childhood services, in the Noth-west of Italy. The basic assumption that is made is that these childcare services provide native entrepreneurial women, who are also mothers, with the opportunity to take care of their children, while low-skilled immigrated women similarly, give a greater support for household and family care.
