THE ENTREPRENEURIAL GENDER GAP
THE GENDER GAP YOU HAVEN’T HEARD OF
This International Women's Day, we’re speaking about something we’re very passionate about. This topic underpins everything we do at lady-brains.
We're speaking about The Entrepreneurial Gender Gap.
Never heard of it? Don't worry, you're not alone.
It's the fact that fewer women start businesses than men, globally. That means fewer women involved in designing the future of work. Fewer women generating economic value. Fewer women in positions of leadership. Fewer women innovating and creating our future.
The reasons the gap exists are complex, and so on this episode of LADY-BRAINS we spoke with Ariane Barker from Scale Investors, and confidence coach Kate Richardson, and asked the questions...
Why do women struggle getting access to capital, and what can we do to change this?
Why is it tougher for women to access high-value networks of people that will help propel us forward? And how do we network with impact?
How can we overcome self-confidence battles to make sure we’re putting our best foot forward?
On this episode hear us dissect the issues and come up with strategies that will help us all get ahead in business.
THE BITS YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS
“There is $5 trillion being left on the table because women aren’t creating businesses at the same rate as men.”
“Women reclaiming control of their financial destiny is extremely important. We need to empower women and girls to ask questions about how money is raised.”
“If you lack the confidence to dream big, then you are automatically limiting where you might go.”
