"Personally, I would like us to be the best place for women to grow successful businesses in the world. And we have the ability to do that." – Marcela Mandeville
💡 Women entrepreneurs are changing the world—but they still face massive challenges in securing funding, scaling their businesses, and breaking into key industries. Today on The Business Development Podcast, I sit down with Marcela Mandeville, CEO of Alberta Women Entrepreneurs (AWE), who is on a mission to remove these barriers and build the strongest support system for women in business.
For nearly 30 years, AWE has been leading the charge, helping women entrepreneurs access over $35 million in funding, with an 11:1 economic impact. But despite these efforts, many women are still turned away from loans, excluded from major business networks, and struggling to scale.
In this episode, we dive into:
✔️ Why funding for women-led businesses is still a challenge in 2024
✔️ How AWE is changing the game for female entrepreneurs
✔️ The real obstacles holding women back from scaling their businesses
✔️ Why Alberta has the potential to be the best place in the world for women in business
This is a must-watch for entrepreneurs, business leaders, and anyone passionate about creating real change in the world of business.
