Women are 50% more likely to start businesses than the national average, yet are 70% less likely than men to own a business with revenue of $1 million-plus, according to The American Express OPEN State of Women-Owned Business Report.

Information about how women can increase their chances to break through that ceiling, is hit-or-miss, here and there, with no “big picture,” no step-by-step guidelines and no hand-holding. Most importantly, you have to spend a lot of entrepreneurial time searching and jumping from one site to another.

Ventureneer pulls together – all in one place -- information women entrepreneurs can use to power-up their businesses; provide the hand-holding when needed; and analysis to clarify options.

By providing a central resource, Ventureneer will encourage women to think of entrepreneurship as a career option, give those who have taken the first entrepreneurial steps guidelines for plowing ahead, and provide insights for and by experienced entrepreneurs.

Content will be drawn from top-notch sources, from Forbes to Women 2.0 and from Inc. to the Kauffman Foundation. These articles will be augmented with articles by Ventureneer’s president, Geri Stengel, who is researching the factors that help women-owned businesses break through the $1 million revenue ceiling.
