Recycled Crafts Yogurt Containers

days of inspiration encouraging entrepreneurial women

Today the end "Entrepreneur Day" organized by Barcelona Activa, one of the reference events in Spain (for the hearth, its content and depth) of promoting entrepreneurship . As you can guess, I'm not really agree with your title, or with the very low presence of women in the platforms (16 of 77, if I have not discounted), but with its approach and impact.

I wonder if the statistics of the organization listed few women and few men attended this event (5557 in total in 2008 and up the figures annually), because either we are on par or even might lead the pleasant surprise that more women than men attending seminars, workshops, meetings, etc. and this has been noticed in the tail of accreditations at the meeting point (managed effectively by Rosaura Alastruey , good professional and expert in network management) or in the lecture rooms full of people, full of women.

This year another interesting novelty of the event, space has been devoted to networks: to make known some of the networking platforms of enterprising people more active in the city. This dresser shows that social networks are a key element for generating business in the economic area there are great (and sound) and employers' organizations
business, but that there a whole underworld of more or less formal contacts arising from and for entrepreneurs, and have a direct impact on their business.

So to do a little self a question: Why were not present any networks of women entrepreneurs, businesswomen
, professionals, policy ...? We should consider, perhaps, if in the next issue we want to have active presence, give public voice, leave our underworld and exercise that cost us so much, visible, and what speaks wisely Neus Arqués .

Of all the papers to which I attended this year (too few, by the way) I'm certainly with the least and most content quorum was breaking the traditional standards of entrepreneurship: innovation and social entrepreneurship. I will continue to recommend that you take into account the work of Ashoka , who rightly taught us María Calvo, the director in Spain, or that may know some of the social entrepreneurs of our country (some with direct support of Ashoka) Roser Batlle, Beatriz Fadón , Isabel Guirao, Viki Bernardet, Teresa Benet, María Entrecanales ...

Today we could get up close to Raul Contreras of IUNA , and Jean Claude Rodríguez-Ferrera , promoter of community self which, incidentally, some groups of women entrepreneurs already acted on practice.

really are people that stir the audience with his desire to change the reality that surrounds us, a reality that we sometimes see and do not like, sometimes we look carefully and moves us and, rarely, observe, analyze and wonder what I can do I change this? The social entrepreneurs and by always putting the wave frequency and, if they listen, at least you feel inspired and infected .
