Women Entrepreneurship

What Women Entrepreneurship does

Women Entrepreneurship (WE) is a private, for-profit community and educational platform founded in 2018 by Keren Hod and headquartered in New York. The organization serves aspiring and early-stage women entrepreneurs globally through its core WE Program — an exclusive 10-week entrepreneurship curriculum delivered live on Zoom covering ideation, validation, market research, business modeling, fundraising, storytelling, marketing, legal, and conclusion. WE supplements its core program with a Speakers Network of high-profile entrepreneurs and investors (including former Waze CEO Noam Bardin and Pear VC's Mar Hershenson), a volunteer Ambassador Program with global reach, and a subscription newsletter. The company targets women at multiple stages of the entrepreneurial journey, from idea-stage aspirants to side hustlers, intrapreneurs, and early-stage founders, with documented alumni outcomes including founders raising between $1M and $3M in pre-seed funding.

WE's underlying technology is intentionally minimal: the platform operates as a content-and-community business rather than a software product, with no proprietary technology stack, no mobile app, no API, and no disclosed AI capabilities. Distribution is delivered through digital channels (Zoom-based program delivery, website, email newsletter) and a community-led growth motion powered by volunteer ambassadors and university partnerships. WE reports 40,000+ community members, 80+ program cohorts completed, 1,000+ program alumni, and presence at 7+ years of activity with global reach across the U.S. and Israel.

The business model is program-based professional services revenue, with an application/waitlist enrollment process and pricing that is not publicly disclosed. WE is founder-controlled with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity, and the team is reported at 11-50 employees with multiple dedicated program managers across geographies. Brand credibility is anchored by Forbes 30 Under 30 recognition for founder Keren Hod and media features in Forbes, Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Entrepreneur Magazine.

Direct peers

• Create & Cultivate: Create & Cultivate is an events-and-content platform built specifically for women entrepreneurs and creatives, offering conferences, workshops, and digital programming. It overlaps directly with WE on target audience (women founders) and on the mix of live programming, speakers, and community-building.
• Ladies Get Paid: Ladies Get Paid is a community and education platform for women in the workplace and entrepreneurship, running workshops, online courses, and events to advance women's careers and businesses. It mirrors WE's adult-women target audience and combines cohort-style programming with a community network.
• Dreamers & Doers: Dreamers & Doers is an invitation-only membership community for ambitious women, providing curated networking, mentorship, and content to support professional and entrepreneurial growth. Its selective, community-led model is closely comparable to WE's ambassador and alumni approach.
• SoGal: SoGal is a global community of women entrepreneurs and investors running local chapters, events, and a venture arm. It is highly comparable to WE on demographic (women founders), community-led growth via chapters/ambassadors, and programming focused on building and funding businesses.
• All Raise: All Raise is a nonprofit community accelerating the success of women in tech and venture, running programming for women founders and operators. It is a direct peer in the women-entrepreneurship education and community space, though structured as a nonprofit rather than a for-profit.
• Marie Forleo (B-School): Marie Forleo's B-School is a flagship cohort-based online program teaching entrepreneurship, business building, and digital marketing to aspiring founders. It is a direct competitor in the cohort-based online business education category, with a similar live-cohort delivery model and curriculum focused on launching and growing a business.

Broad incumbents

• Tory Burch Foundation: The Tory Burch Foundation runs the Founders program, fellowship, and capital programs supporting women entrepreneurs, with significantly more institutional resources. It targets the same women-founder demographic as WE and offers complementary programming, mentorship, and capital, but operates at a larger, foundation-backed scale.

Emerging players

• Maven: Maven is a cohort-based learning platform hosting live, interactive courses taught by industry experts across business, product, and management. It overlaps with WE on live cohort delivery and professional/management curriculum, but serves a broader (not women-only) audience and operates as a marketplace rather than a branded community.
