The Challenges Faced By Women Entrepreneurs

Women entrepreneurs are stepping into the forefront of business. But what are the challenges faced by these women entrepreneurs? We speak to Associate Professor Grace Lee Hooi Yean, Head of Economics Department, Dr Sharon Koh Geok May, Senior Lecturer and Dr Juliana Angeline French, Head of Marketing Department from the Monash University Malaysia School of Business to understand women in business and what can be done to address pain points of women’s entrepreneurial journey. 

It’s also Women’s Entrepreneurship Day this November 19 but here at BFM, we’re celebrating it this Wednesday, November 16. We’ll share more details in a bit.
