2023-03-22 10:00 - 11:00 (America/New_York)
The number of women entrepreneurs and women-owned businesses has been increasing over the last couple decades. While they are still in the minority – owning only 1 in 3 businesses globally – they are growing and there is increasing recognition of the important role that women play in national and global economic growth. But women face unique and different challenges in the enabling environment.
The U.S. Small Business Administration and the U.S. Agency for International Development welcome you to join a discussion of entrepreneurship ecosystems to support women to pursue their dreams of entrepreneurship and business ownership and the U.S. Women’s Economic Security Strategy, which in part aims to support women entrepreneurship globally.
