Zusammenfassung: 
We explore the gendered impact of risk aversion and country-level culture on nascent student entrepreneurs’ progress in the venturing process. Combining country-level cultural normative variables from the 2004 Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) survey with data from the 2013/2014 Global University Entrepreneurial Student Spirit Study (GUESSS), our sample consists of 1552 nascent student entrepreneurs from 11 countries. We start with the assumption that perceptions of risk-taking behaviors are not gendered. We then split our sample, finding that, for women, perceptions of risk-taking behaviors are associated with less progress in the venturing process; however, starting a new venture in a socially supportive culture moderates that relationship. For men, neither risk-taking behavior nor country cultural variables are related to their progress in the venturing process. Our study highlights both the importance of country-level contextual variables in entrepreneurship and the need to employ a gendered perspective when studying nascent entrepreneurship.
