I was just reading an article on Forbes Woman about the word "Momprenuer" which I think sounds even worse than our Mumpreneur! It's an interesting article about whether the Mumprenuer term is derogatory, and whether it's relevant. I popped a comment on the post which I'm including below. 

I do think the distiction between a Mumpreneur and a run-of-the-mill entrepreneur is important

"I think the point is this: Because of circumstance, a woman who is running a business and is the main carer of (especially young) children approaches her business differently to other entrepreneurs.

Most entrepreneurs I know (and that is many) are exceptionally driven and focussed and think nothing of investing 14+ hour days in the success of their business.

A Mum simply can’t do that – although many of them would like to! So a “Mumpreneur” business is one that has to be designed around another job – parenting. It doesn’t make it any the less of a business, it’s just one that can not be the sole focus of the entrepreneur.

So a Mumpreneur business is not one making baby stuff, it’s not to do with running a business with a baby on your knee. It’s acknowledging that the founder has two very important, and time consuming roles in life.

All that said, the actual word “Mompreneur”/”Mumpreneur” is awful."
