Women Entrepreneurs Have Multiple Funding Sources

Women comprise about 40% of all small-business owners, but only 3% of all female entrepreneurs owned small companies with revenue over $1 million, compared to 6% of all male entrepreneurs, according to the Center for Women’s Business Research. Fortunately, women entrepreneurs have more resources than ever before to reach out for funding, the 9/25/06 “Wall Street Journal” reported, including: the SBA Office of Women’s Business Ownership, Count Me In, Make Mine a Million, Ladies Who Launch, Golden Seeds and the National Association of Women Business Owners.
