Gender and ethnicity: Barriers to business success?
Starting a business is tough, but is it even tougher if you are a minority ethnic woman?
There are so many barriers to running a successful business, but some surveys suggest that the ceiling is even higher if you throw in gender and race. We hear from four women who are working hard to change this. Dr Ava Brown, the CEO of skincare business Mango Girl explains how she feels when she goes to events where she's the only ethnic woman in the room. Collette Philip, founder of consultancy Brand By Me shares how she was refused credit because she didn't 'look like a strategist'. And we hear from Beatrice Ngalula Kabutakapu a business storytelling coach and Foluke Akinlose, founder of an online magazine, awards evening and an events coordinator which aims to showcase female business leaders from black, asian and minority ethnic communities.
