Today I am welcoming back my very first guest of Narratives of Purpose - Pauline Koelbl, founder of ShEquity. ShEquity is a Catalyst Fund that provides smart investments for innovative and impactful African female entrepreneurs.
Join me in this conversation where Pauline talks about the growth and impact of ShEquity since we first spoke in 2020.
Listen to today's episode to hear how the journey of ShEquity has evolved since our last conversation.
Show notes:
I recommend that you tune into my previous conversation with Pauline in our first ever episode of Narratives of Purpose so that you can better follow along with the growth story of her company.
To find out more about ShEquity, head over to their website and find out more about SHEBA (the ShEquity Business Accelerator) here. You can also connect with Pauline on LinkedIn.
