Women’s labor force participation hit a 33-year low this year, though the same thing is happening as after the 2008-09 recession, when women-owned businesses were massive job creators and stabilizers of the economy. “Women are resilient,” said Jennifer Sales, Entreprenista’s COO. “After having accounted for most of the job loss in the US since the start of the pandemic, we’re seeing many look to entrepreneurship to turn things around. The Entreprenista on Shopify program aims to support these women, providing them with the tools, skillset, and community they need to start and grow a business, and take ownership of their careers.”
