Entrepreneurship plays a significant role for growth and development of the nation. In India, women make up roughly half of the population. However, their contribution to the country's economic progress is smaller than that of men. Women own and operate only 8.05 million of the total 58.5 million enterprises. Entrepreneurial potential may be defined the willingness and propensity of a person to engage in entrepreneurial activities. Individuals' entrepreneurial potential can be evaluated with the aid of their entrepreneurial skills and competences. The present study focuses on identifying the entrepreneurial potential among women both women entrepreneurs and non-entrepreneurs of Uttarakhand. The research is based on descriptive and exploratory research. The data was collected from 550 women respondents including 190 women entrepreneurs and 360 non entrepreneurs. This study is based on primary as well as secondary data. The study found that the entrepreneurial competencies among women entrepreneurs are higher than that of non-entrepreneurs.
