It was a great pleasure to organize on behalf of hub.brussels a visit to Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center headquarters this morning and witness a lively exchange of ideas with the visiting delegation Womenpreneur-Initiative including its founder and CEO Sana Afouaiz and a group of talented #womenentrepreneurs: Aline Tasset of Maméboutique, Catherine Schmit of hapiklan, Diane Umunyurwa of G-HiTech Industries, Elodie Bouscarat of Cookwork, Isaline Tala Delforge of Aho Botanicals and Lilou Cajot of Lusty Foods. The numbers speak for themselves: Since 1985, San Francisco’s Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center has helped over 38,000 people create nearly 21,500 businesses. In 2023, 75% of their clients were women, 60% people of color, and 57% were low-moderate income. That year alone they connected 508 businesses to $1.3m in capital. A huge thank you to Pavitra B. and Susana Cardenas for their excellent overview of Renaissance Entrepreneurship Center suite of services. Another special thank you to Anita Leiva, founder of Utku Kids and Julia Cushen, Ph.D., founder of Lilaque, for introducing their startups and sharing their experiences as San Francisco based entrepreneurs with their #Brussels counterparts.
