How are women-founded businesses prioritized?
We target cohorts that are at least 40% women in leadership positions, 35% of those being women-led or co-led across both Ignite and Propel. We run targeted outreach for women founders in every region, and Ignite workshops can be recorded to support founders with with caregiving or other commitments to learn asynchronously. Propel is designed to allow founders to remain in their base location and have Propel specialists travel to meet them while the rest of the support is structured online, enabling founders to manage their priorities more easily.
