Ticket bought, I’m in!
My impossible project is to speak at the United Nations about my social enterprise, Funding Focus, whose mission is to level the uneven playing field that female and diverse entrepreneurs face when raising capital. My TEDx talk “The Fight for Fairer Funding” (see link) was released last week and is live on YouTube. In addition, I have signed a deal with my publisher to write my second book, which has the working title “Changing the Face of Entrepreneur Funding” and will be released later this year.
This is a huge issue, and it affects entrepreneurs all over the world. At the end of my TEDx talk, I say that one of the most important next steps is to raise awareness of this issue with governments and NGOs around the world, so I’m going straight to the top – the UN.
I’ve now posted this on LinkedIn and Facebook as well. Let Providence move.

Love it. Came into the group today just to check what yours was going to be fellow-old timer. Love it. I am (obviously) a female entrepreneur and have never raised capital for any of my business ventures as I have no idea how and it looks too confusing and like a huge responsibility – so curious to learn more. Looking forward to seeing how this one goes.
