Women and business in BC:
BC’s business climate for female entrepreneurs

Wednesday, March 6, 7:00 TO 8:00 P.M. (PDT)

What’s it take for BC women to thrive as entrepreneurs in BC’s dynamic business environment? Hon. Naomi Yamamoto (@NaomiYamamoto) hosted the latest  Government of BC #BCBizChat and asked BC’s businesswomen:

• Why did you decide to become a small business owner/entrepreneur?
• What advice do you have for other women looking to become business owners?
• Have you faced any key challenges as a woman in business? If so, how are you overcoming them?
• Have you taken any mentoring programs (whether specific or not to women entrepreneurs)?
• What resources have been most helpful to you? What are the opportunities for government to support you further?
