The Society of Women Entrepreneurs offers community, mentorship and support to women entrepreneurs worldwide. Its mission is to help you achieve yours. In 2016, the founding members—female entrepreneurs themselves—noticed most of the training and advice for business building they came across was geared toward men and failed to take into account the unique challenges and strengths of women entrepreneurs. They decided to change that. That summer, they brought together a group of 12 female business owners who were frustrated with the lack of support they had, and The Society of Women Entrepreneurs was born. They met in each other’s living rooms twice a month, and within a year, they’d grown to more than 1,500 members. Today, The Society of WE has thousands of members in multiple cities and is currently expanding to sister chapters nationally and internationally, and is launching a new mentorship program for young girls. This ecosystem of women helping, supporting and mentoring women is attracting new members every day, and The Society of WE is on track to become the most impactful community of women entrepreneurs in the world.
