Last month, I was in Houston to attend the inaugural Circular Summit, an invitation-only event for high growth women entrepreneurs with attractive and scalable business models.
Hosted by Circular Board CEO Carolyn Rodz and Dell Entrepreneur-in-Residence Elizabeth Gore, Circular Summit brought together accomplished female founders and investors to collaborate on how to accelerate the growth of women-led businesses.
What struck me the most about the women I met was that they were all inspired by a higher purpose. This higher purpose was the catalyst that led them to create their socially-driven startups.
