Women, people of color, immigrants and people over 40 are becoming the fastest growing groups of entrepreneurs

Webinar for entrepreneurs seeking fresh insight and ideas for growth

The Covid pandemic has severely impacted entrepreneurship in America. Fewer new firms are being started and are increasingly concentrated in just a few major cities in the U.S. Yet, there is growth and a new model of entrepreneurship emerging.

Join New York Women in Business for our fourth Author Talk in a fireside chat with Elizabeth MacBride, journalist, founder of Times of Entrepreneurship and co-author of The New Builders: Face to Face with The Real Future of Business. Elizabeth will tell stories of the next generation of entrepreneurs — and argue for the future of American entrepreneurship.

She will be interviewed by Petia Abdur-Razzaaq, founder of the Stylista Group and a certified Grow with Google speaker.

Listen to a panel of four successful women small business owners share how they found opportunity in this new landscape, overcame obstacles and helped drive growth in this economy.

Leave inspired and energized.
