The Real Cost of Scaling: Women Founders Tell the Truth
Most founder stories get told after the win. The mess gets cut out.
This panel keeps the mess in. Successful women founders talk about what it took to build and scale. The hires that went wrong. The money decisions that kept them up at night. The year they did everything right and revenue still didn't move.
You will not hear a highlight reel. You will hear what happened.
