2023 LAUREATES

NEWS

Launched in March 2021, WomenEntrepreneurs4Good was imagined as a concrete solution to the negative impacts of the Covid-19 crisis on women entrepreneurs. Today, women entrepreneurs still face greater challenges compared to men, including gender biases, work-life balance, and a lack of professional networks and support, especially when it comes to funding (in 2020 only 2.3% of VC funding went to women-led startups!). The initiative is a unique accelerator programme that supports women entrepreneurs at the early stages of their journey. The 7-month online programme equips women entrepreneurs with unique resources and capabilities to innovate and grow their businesses by providing coaching, visibility, technical support, exposure and access to a network of stakeholders and global partners. The programme is going from strength to strength. After the success of the first three editions, the Women’s Forum is determined to grow WE4G and support new projects led by inspiring women creating a better future for all. For the fourth edition of WomenEntrepreneurs4Good the programme is expanding its scope for a greater impact!
This initiative is carried out in partnership and with the support of Bank of America, Bredin Prat and HEC Paris
