London and Stockholm did particularly well, having been ranked respectively as third and fifth best cities for women entrepreneurs.

The survey found Paris at 12th, Berlin at 21st and Copenhagen at 25th out of 50. Barcelona, Munich, Dublin, Warsaw and Milan are other European cities listed in Dell’s top 50 global cities for women entrepreneurs.
