Female entrepreneurs have unwavering spirit and grit compared to their male counterparts. Women start their ventures with significantly lesser funding and support, than the male founders. When it comes to maximizing resources, they are extremely efficient. The number of women-led businesses is also on a rise of 68%, employment has increased by 11% and the revenues by 72%. However, female founders start businesses with 6X times less venture capital than men.

Not surprisingly, women are flocking to women only co-working, closing the gender gap and bring more empowerment to the flexible or shared office space. Here’s why.

#1. Workplace equality – The notion of “equality in the workplace” is far from being a reality. With inequality persisting, moving up the professional ladder for women is challenging.

In a women-only co-working space equality is not an issue. The community, being women, is collaborative, inspirational and supportive. With no pressure of trying to fit into the “boys club”, the environment is diverse and encouraging.

#2. No gender-related hierarchy -  In companies where equality does not exist, the hierarchy does not favour the female team members. In a shared office space, such as Kontor Space, a women-only co-working space, there is no hierarchy. Our community managers are also proactive in ensuring that such an environment is sustained constantly.
#3. Easily accessible mentors – A staggering 48% of female founders lack mentorship and they say this is a key bottleneck in their entrepreneurial progress. Women-only co-working allows for easy collaboration and constant interaction with co-workers and professionals working from the shared office. In turn, gives rise to new friendships, communities and relationships, giving access to a wider range of professionals and individuals. Therefore, co-working is a hotbed of mentorship, waiting to be levered.
