Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders and Entrepreneurs

Our Opportunity

Women Are Key To a Healthy Economy

  • More than 9.1 Million firms are owned by woman
  • They employ nearly 7.9 million people
  • They generate 1.4 trillion in sales

Over half of college graduates today are woman, but the number of woman in business leadership roles has not caught up

…and this McKinsey study also shows that the common excuses such as woman are leaving the workforce to start families does not hold up.

E(ntrepreneurship) for Girls Program

E-School for Girls meets these challenges with a two-week summer intensive program at NYU designed to empower young women to become confident leaders and entrepreneurs. We strive to give rising High School juniors and seniors experiences that enable them to take initiative, pave their own paths and have the courage to achieve their own definition of success.
