Real Talk at the Barber Shop: Enterprise Women

Monica Smiley, the founder of Enterprise Women, has led a global organization dedicated to supporting women entrepreneurs for nearly 25 years. Since its inception in 2000, Enterprise Women has evolved from being a magazine into a vibrant community. Smiley emphasizes that the organization goes beyond traditional media by fostering a supportive network for women in business. Her journey involved creating a foundation to address the scarcity of resources for female entrepreneurs and advocating for increased visibility and support, particularly for women in STEM fields.


Smiley highlights the importance of mentorship and community involvement, citing the challenges women face in accessing capital and the venture field. She underscores the value of giving back and building strong connections, noting that Enterprise Women has benefited from partnerships with major corporations like Walmart Business, which have contributed to the advisory board. The organization is known for its open, friendly culture and commitment to sharing best practices. Looking ahead, Smiley is excited about their upcoming conference, marking over two decades of impactful gatherings, and advises women entrepreneurs to be brave, resilient and resourceful in their business endeavors.
