Only 17% of businesses in Canada are women-owned and while the Canadian government is taking steps to advance women's economic empowerment, there is so much to do. In this episode, I speak with Svetlana Ratnikova, the founder of Immigrant Women in Business. It is an organization that helps immigrant women grow professionally and personally.
In this episode we cover:
1. How Svetlana became one of the 1st female entrepreneurs in Russia
2. What inspired you to start an organization to help immigrant women become entrepreneurs
3. The importance of seeking a mentor
