In January this year we partnered with Digital Boost to create a free "how to start a business course" FOR aspiring #femaleentrepreneurs BY female entrepreneurs. So we tapped into the BUY WOMEN BUILT community and the founders of most well known UK consumer brands stepped up as always and rushed into to help like the champs they are and share everything they know to encourage more women to turn their business ideas into reality. So far two cohorts—396 women in total—have now completed the course. The results? Every single one of the participants has doubled their confidence in starting a business. This is wonderful news as The Rose Review by NatWest Group cited lack of confidence as one of the biggest obstacles to female entrepreneurship. Women make great entrepreneurs and yet they have a self-perceived lack of ability. According to the The Rose Review 39% of women are confident in their ability to start a business as opposed to 56% of men. So what better than a "how to" course with live proof and encouragement from UK's biggest brand founders to show women they DO have what it takes. You cant be what you cant see.
