Sumario:In view of the great influence of gender in the context of Brazilian entrepreneurship, most of women entrepreneurs’ experience discrimination, not to mention the great challenge of seeking a balance between their professional career and personal demands (family). Encouraging entrepreneurship, the generation of jobs and income, must be goals for the achievement of social and economic development and establishment of democratic rule of law. Within the above, it is urgent to carry out studies on the subject, especially in a country with the continental dimensions of Brazil. Thus, this work deals with women entrepreneurs in Boa Vista - RR, aiming to carry out an explanatory and descriptive cross-sectional study of individual micro-entrepreneurs (MEIs) from Boa Vista - RR. Data collection through quantitative and qualitative research aims to contribute to the analysis and verification of conflicting situations such as conflicts between family and professional demands, and conflicts between work and personal demands. Finally, this study shows the microentrepreneur profile of women from the Northernmost state of Brazil.
