Liverpool hosts global centre for women’s enterprise
Oct 22nd, 2009 by Taylor
The UK’s first women’s international centre for economic development is to launch in Liverpool.
The centre will combine incubation space and gendered enterprise support with a research hub that will develop a global community in the field of women’s enterprise.
The centre will be the first in the world to draw the three elements together in a single dedicated body.
The research arm is of particular importance and will allow us to look at practice and policy and what needs to be done to reverse the trend of female entrepreneurship.
A panel of academics and practice-based experts from across the globe will undertake and encourage new research to boost the evidence base in the field.
