#2 Why Another Podcast?

Broadmic Startup Shortcuts

“We can’t move forward with only 50% of the population.” In the past 3 years, only 4% of female founders have received venture capital funding.

It is 2016, well past the time to change this. Women are a powerful entrepreneurial force—not just a large consumer market to be tapped or “binders full of women” to be hired. Listen to host Kelly Hoey highlight the diverse role models who are breaking the conventional stereotype of an entrepreneur, and spotlight the women and minorities who are acting, leading and changing the world. Through hosted conversations on BroadMic, Kelly will demonstrate why having conversations about success is as important as having role models. We believe in strengthening the BroadMic community through shared expertise. Together, we can change the narrative. No more white papers, no more studies, no more theses about change – let’s act!
