Thousands of Australian women entrepreneurs were left disappointed yesterday after receiving an email saying their application to the Boosting Female Founders (BFF) grant initiative had been successful, only to later be told there had been a mistake.

While the shine theory is relevant to all aspects of our lives, it is particularly suitable in terms of women in business. 

Instead of fighting to break through the glass ceiling, more and more women are starting their own businesses, and we need to support them.

It’s no secret that regional SMEs did it tough last year, faced with a pandemic and the devastating consequences of bushfires.

"If this year has taught me anything, it’s that female entrepreneurs need an inner circle," says Verve Super co-founder Christina Hobbs.

Five years after launching Inspiring Rare Birds, Jo Burston has achieved a lot. But, she says there's more to be done.

In a budget that left Treasury with a $1 trillion deficit, the $240.4 million pledged to supporting women has been judged as dismal.

Until we change the way we talk about female entrepreneurship, we’re unlikely to make any real progress towards equality.

Australia's economic recovery would be greatly helped along by the inclusion of more talented female founders in our startup ecosystem.

Vulnerability can be a great strength in business because it teaches us to engage, to listen and to admit when we need assistance.

Christina Hobbs is disrupting Australia’s superannuation space with Verve Super, Australia’s first super fund designed for women, by women.

Being powerful women depends greatly on our ability to recognise how our mind and emotions help and hinder our behaviour.
