Perspectives On Women Entrepreneurship – A Panel Discussion

Posted on: Oct 14, 2021

Overview: Women Entrepreneurship Week (WEW) began as an idea in a cubicle at Montclair State in the spring of 2014. The first WEW events were held in 2014, when four North Jersey universities participated. Since then, WEW has grown into an international celebration.

A big art of entrepreneurship is much more than simply having an idea, with 90% of the work in implementation. This week nurtures, inspires and energizes female founders around the world by offering inspiration and practical advice from female founders.

This year BMO-CIAR is partnering with the Feliciano Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation, Montclair State University to celebrate CUE women innovators to host a panel discussion on the topic of 鈥淧erspective On Women Entrepreneurship鈥.
