Female founders: the key to a strong startup ecosystem!

startup_coaching_women

The secret to a strong startup ecosystem is diversity. Diversity of backgrounds, ideas, and approaches driven by successful entrepreneurs, who inspire and give back to the community. And female founders are key to that.

Studies have shown that start-ups having a woman as founder operate more efficiently than male-led companies, that a predominant intrinsic motivation of female entrepreneurs make them more likely to go the extra mile and persevere, and that they are more prone to introduce a strong sense of social responsibility to the community (Forbes). While the number of leading women in the start-up field increased in recent years, the environment is still shaking off old-habits and adapting to the new balance. It is critical to educate the market and to support female founders to break barriers.
