Lisa Wang and Yin Lin share more than just impressive athletic backgrounds—Wang, a five-time national gymnastics champion, and Lin, a marathon runner—they also share a deep commitment to empowering women in entrepreneurship. Both co-founders had successfully launched and scaled their own companies before joining forces to tackle a challenge they both encountered: gender inequality in business.
The Birth of SheWorx
Wang and Lin co-founded SheWorx, a global collective of female entrepreneurs, with a mission to provide women with mentorship, networking opportunities, and actionable business insights. Unlike traditional networking groups, SheWorx is designed to offer practical strategies and tangible support to help female founders navigate the unique challenges of building a business.
A Platform for Lifelong Learning
SheWorx aims to foster a stronger startup ecosystem where women can openly discuss challenges and walk away with real solutions. As co-founder Yin Lin explains:
A Rapidly Growing Global Movement
In just its first year, SheWorx organized over 70 events featuring accomplished investors and startup founders, drawing 3,000 members to its community. Its global reach has expanded to London, New York, Singapore, and Tel Aviv, providing female entrepreneurs around the world with valuable tools and networks to succeed.
By leveraging their shared experiences, drive, and cultural backgrounds, Lisa Wang and Yin Lin have built more than just a business community—they’ve created a movement aimed at breaking barriers for women in entrepreneurship. As SheWorx continues to grow, its impact on the startup ecosystem will only strengthen, helping more women secure funding, scale their businesses, and drive change in the industry.
