因?yàn)殡娮由虅?wù)的普及，在家看孩子的主婦也能創(chuàng)業(yè)掙錢了。她們被稱為“媽媽企業(yè)家”。不過，據(jù)說(shuō)近兩年，退休的奶奶們也加入了創(chuàng)業(yè)的大軍，而且成績(jī)也很出眾呢。我們是不是該管她們叫“奶奶企業(yè)家”了?

First we had mumpreneurs - the women raising children while also setting up thriving businesses from their kitchen tables.

起初，我們有“媽媽企業(yè)家”，指那些一邊照看孩子，一邊在廚房餐桌旁創(chuàng)業(yè)并把生意做得紅紅火火的女性。

And now we have so-called "granpreneurs" who are breaking the "silver ceiling" and taking the business world by storm. They are a generation of spirited, vivacious and entrepreneurial grannies, ripping up the rule book and eschewing steady retirement in order to launch successful businesses.

如今，又有了“奶奶企業(yè)家”，她們沖破職場(chǎng)“銀色屋頂”，席卷整個(gè)商務(wù)領(lǐng)域。她們是意氣風(fēng)發(fā)、生性活潑，具有創(chuàng)業(yè)精神的奶奶輩，她們打破一切固有規(guī)則，放棄穩(wěn)定的退休生活，只為成就個(gè)人創(chuàng)業(yè)。

從歷史上來(lái)看，50歲以上人群中鮮有創(chuàng)業(yè)者。不過，由英國(guó)阿斯頓大學(xué)商學(xué)院2014年7月發(fā)布的英國(guó)全球創(chuàng)業(yè)觀察報(bào)告顯示，50歲以上人群中有6.5%在創(chuàng)業(yè)，首次與18-49歲人群中的創(chuàng)業(yè)人數(shù)占比持平。

They may have had a long career in employment, but when retirement looms they think: "Hang on, I want to do something I'm passionate about now," and many devise business plans to become their own boss.

他們或許一直在為別人工作，可當(dāng)退休生活來(lái)臨時(shí)，他們會(huì)想：“等等，我現(xiàn)在想做一些自己熱愛的事情，”而很多人都選擇繪制商業(yè)藍(lán)圖，自己當(dāng)老板。
