Entrepreneur.com Launches New Women Entrepreneur Experience

IRVINE, Calif., June 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Entrepreneur announces the launch of a dedicated Women Entrepreneur channel on its site, and with it, a robust resource celebrating and empowering the growing community of women building their own businesses.

From 1997 to 2017, the share of women-owned businesses has grown from 26 percent of all firms to 39 percent. At the same time, employment (7% to 8%) and revenues (4.4% to 4.2%) from women-owned firms have not grown at the same pace, indicating opportunities to provide women trailblazers with the resources they need to further their success.

For example, nearly half of women entrepreneurs state that a challenge facing their business is the lack of available mentors, a need the channel addresses directly with access to personalized business coaching.

While Entrepreneur has for years developed an array of diverse content, social and event experiences addressing the needs of this audience segment, Women Entrepreneur focuses those efforts into a new, centralized platform with a dedicated editorial advisory team. Women Entrepreneur offers a place for women to conquer everyday challenges and inspire others by celebrating wins in the entrepreneurial journey.

"We're building an impactful community advocating for the rise of women entrepreneurial leaders, creating an environment for women to invest in women, and connecting women to more of the opportunities and practical tools to realize their business goals," says Andrea Huspeni, special projects director at Entrepreneur.com and the lead editorial advisor for the channel.

The channel offers the hands-on tips, how-to insights and inspirational stories Entrepreneur is known for, accompanied with all-new interactive mentoring, courses and resources to propel women-led ventures forward. 

The Women Entrepreneur experience, which will be released in phases on the channel, includes:

Dynamic Content

• Day-in-the-Life Videos, How-To Articles, Success Profiles, Q&As, Podcasts

Mentoring and Community Resources

• Virtual Mentoring Sessions on a Wide Range of Business Topics - For those seeking one-on-one advice, the virtual mentoring sessions available as part of the Women Entrepreneur experience offer the opportunity for leaders to optimize their business with the help of different subject-matter experts.
