About Us

Our Founding Beliefs

  • Female entrepreneurship is no longer just a gender issue. It's an economic issue.

  • Investing in women not only makes for smart economics and business sense. It's a win-win for all.

  • We believe that contributions comes in many ways and that all contributions are born equal.

What is The Next Billion
