Paulina Cameron, on championing women entrepreneurs

“Business can be such a tool for women being able to write their own destinies and be able to be economically and socially and impactfully empowered,” says Paulina Cameron, CEO of The Forum. We kick off a new season with an episode that highlights Paulina Cameron’s leadership at The Forum, a Canadian national organization that educates mentors and connects women entrepreneurs to thrive. Cameron has won numerous awards and has been recognized in the community by being selected as Business in Vancouver's top 40 under 40 and was awarded BC's Business Most Influential Women in Finance Award.

Cameron says The Forum activates “a tremendous community of supporters and champions to step into the work of providing women with all the different forms of capital, financial capital, wisdom capital, social capital, inspiration capital, that they need to succeed.”
