Encouraging women to build businesses based on representation and positive models
“ I tried hard in the last years to balance my life as an executive and a mother of three but could not escape a burnout. As I recovered, I recognized a strong desire to be a catalyst for building a more inclusive society for women. Over the last couple of years, I had engaged in infinite conversations with people about what it means to be a woman in the workplace and realized some of the extreme difficulties we have when trying to launch new businesses. After having worked for some of the biggest brands across Europe and the Middle East leveraging Innovation to boost businesses, I, myself, found it extremely difficult to find a pathway to launch my own business. As I could not find it, I had the vision to build it. ”
