National Businesswomen’s Week

This week is National Business Women’s Week. NBWW highlights women entrepreneurs, addresses the needs of working women and raises awareness of working women in their communities. According to the Business and Professional Women’s Foundation, there are 7.2 million majority-owned, privately-held, women-owned businesses in the United States . Other interesting facts come from Dr. Nanette Fondas of MomsRising.org:

• Women-owned businesses represent 30 percent of all U.S. businesses
• They employ 23 million people
• Revenue from women-owned businesses stands at $3 trillion
