I think for larger-scale entrepreneurship, it's true - for men and women - that people who already have capital tend to do better.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I really believe that if capital doesn't come to the entrepreneurs, the entrepreneurs have no choice but to go to the capital.
Entrepreneurship isn't for everyone, and not everyone is going to be an entrepreneur, but women who turn to business, turn to economics, because there are people depending on them, I think that their creativity, their resilience, their spirit, embody what's best about entrepreneurship.
I found that women entrepreneurs earn 50% less than their male counterparts.
I suspect there's a lot of validity to the premise that big companies aren't going to attract entrepreneurial talent.
I have seen businesses and government come together to provide women entrepreneurs with the training they need to better access markets, take advantage of trade agreements, and in the process grow businesses, jobs, and GDP. These are partnerships that transform lives.
The more entrepreneurs in the world that are getting their ideas financed, the more great companies there are going to be that we can all invest in.
In China, a lot of the opening up of private entrepreneurship is happening because women are starting businesses, small businesses, faster than men.
You will always need more capital than you think, because it will always take you longer to reach profitability than you can imagine.
I would say raising capital is one of the weakest things for most entrepreneurs.
In general, the more entrepreneurs we have, the better off we will be because the economy is driven by small businesses and creative ideas... I'm really excited about what the future holds for women entrepreneurship and to be a small part of that by helping Kim Kardashian and Jessica Alba start their businesses.
