RESEARCH

We aim to drive an active conversation about women impact entrepreneurs through content curation and research partnerships.

Monitoring and quantifying changes and gaps in the women’s entrepreneurship space helps us keep our actions targeted and impactful. In 2021, we partnered with Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) to support the annual publication of the Women’s Entrepreneurship Report and Global Report.
