Quantam Leaps, Co-Founded by Virginia Littlejohn, a pioneer in supporting women’s entrepreneurship around the world, is an IWEC Affiliate Organization.
Women entrepreneurs play a largely unrealized economic role in GDP growth and job creation, which undercuts not only innovation, but also the efficiency of the global economy. To improve their visibility and economic impact, Quantum Leaps has crafted a robust portfolio of solutions aimed at developing both the competitive capabilities of women business owners, as well as the performance and transparency of the ecosystem they operate within.
We mesh both top-down and bottom-up approaches into a single focused intervention. Rather than emphasizing fairness, we focus on using women’s entrepreneurship as a means of driving quantifiable and multi-dimensional growth at the sub-regional, national, regional and global levels.
