The Story Exchange is a digital media project showcasing entrepreneurial women around the world.
Women who have small businesses, social enterprises, non-profits as well as sole proprietors around the world.
More than 126 million women are starting or running businesses in 67 economies, creating millions of jobs and generating trillions of dollars in revenue. Yet, most of the stories that capture media attention are those of high-growth startups, many of which are male-owned and not representative of the majority of small businesses. We want to change the narrative, and tell the stories of female entrepreneurs in an array of industries who are making a difference, breaking through barriers, and driving economic growth.
