Studies have shown that women are a third more likely to start a business out of necessity than men due to their financial situation. They are also the most averse to taking the risk of starting a new business, due to not knowing where to start or where to find advice.
 
Astonishing 70% of women entrepreneur’s businesses fail due to lack of women role models, mentors, resources and in some cases, low self-confidence (fear). The summit will provide the opportunity for women to share stories, tips, inspiration, showcase their businesses and network to offer each other support, resources and inspiration/motivation.
 
We are requesting your support for this event through sponsorships, PSA’s and inviting us to be guest(s) on radio/TV shows that have opportunities for interviews to get the word out to women entrepreneurs or who aspire to be one.
