In response to an article written on July 22, 2008 “Smaller Share of U.S. Women in the Workforce” our letter to the editor was published! Thank you to our great Public Relations Committee, Jann Taber & Robyn Boyer,  for keeping an eye on current articles and events and getting us press! Please read below.

Women as entrepreneurs

Re “Smaller share of U.S. women in workforce” (Page A1, July 22): Women aren’t dropping out or giving up. Rather than return to a flagging industrial workforce, one that still pays women only 59 cents for every dollar a man makes for the same labor, women in droves are starting businesses.

According to the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Women’s Business Research, one of every 11 adult women is an entrepreneur. Every minute, five women start a business in the United States . Nearly 10.4 million firms are 50 percent or more owned by women, and we employ more than 12.8 million people. Even in this economy, that’s about $1.9 trillion in sales.

Between 1997 and 2006, majority women-owned firms grew at twice the rate of all firms, 42 percent vs. 24 percent. What does this spell? Success outside the workforce for millions of women.
