You’ll find everything from innovative womenswear to sustainable beauty and baked goods.
Did you know there are 30% fewer female entrepreneurs in the UK compared to the US? This is what inspired the team to launch Buy Women Built, an organisation on a mission to support entrepreneurs on their business journeys.
Buy Women Built is committed to building a vibrant and diverse community of entrepreneurs, while working towards one overarching goal: giving a voice to innovative and exciting brands that are spearheaded by women.
It’s also about motivating and influencing the female entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Making women-built brands more visible not only lifts up existing entrepreneurs but also allows the next generation of girls to dream bigger.
Discover some of the exciting businesses working with Buy Women Built on 10-12 November at The Truman Brewery, exclusively at Stylist Live 2023.
