Welcome to Season 3 Episode 1! I’m in conversation with Olivia Owens who is the founding member and the business development and partnerships manager of IFundWomen of Colour. IFundWomen is the go-to marketplace for women-owned businesses and the people who want to fund them. They offer immediate access to capital through a premium online fundraising experience where entrepreneurs can access small business grants from corporate partners, expert business coaching and a network of other entrepreneurs. Olivia and I talk about the funding gap that exists, the systemic biases that prevail where women are unable to access debt-free capital to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys. How does this affect BIPOC entrepreneurs? How can we build an equitable future of work? Tune in to hear us talk about the work required to change the funding landscape so that women can start, scale, sustain and thrive as business owners. If you're a budding entrepreneur in the USA I urge you to check their work out: https://ifundwomen.com.
