A Home for Aspiring Entrepreneurs

Incubators, entrepreneurship schools, garages, and more. I love it. Places where aspiring entrepreneurs can go for space, resources, inspiration, mentors, advice, and possibly funding. A place to network with other aspiring entrepreneurs, to create, and to make things happen. I see opportunities for incubators in many developing countries where they do not currently exist. Guyana doesn't have one yet....but maybe one day :)


A Garage, a Sauna and some Uni Students? The Aalto Venture Garage – putting the cool into startup schools…

Women's Entrepreneurship is Climbing

“It really is when the spirit speaks … and the stars align,” Pastore said. “That’s what being an entrepreneur is – you see an unmet need and you fill it.”


Womens' entrepreneurship is climbing....and very fast! All over the world we see NGOs, governments, and the private sector investing in female entrepreneurs with new projects, loans, support networks, and more. These women are passionate, determined, and hardworking but many of them lack the confidence to get things going. Micro-finance, mentors, training, and support groups have helped women excel as entrepreneurs who will make a difference. 


I found this article below about female entrepreneurship on the rise....check it out!
