'A VC Massaged My Shoulders in a Meeting': the Unique Challenges for Women Entrepreneurs Why raising funds and building a business is often more complex for women than it is for men.
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.
On this episode, Entrepreneur Network partner Business Rockstars interviews Madeline Fraser and Beatrice Fischel-Bock, the co-founders of Hutch (a Los Angeles-based home design startup), to talk about their business philosophies and what it's like to try to build a business as a woman. There are some positives -- often, women entrepreneurs tend to be less common and thus more memorable -- but the negatives are pretty astounding.
For example, Fischel-Bock recounts an experience where a venture capitalist chose to rub her shoulders during a fundraising meeting. Now, try to imagine that happening to a man!
Watch the video to learn more about Fraser and Fischel-Bock's entrepreneurial journey.
