Hillary's SHOCKING 2014 Goldman Sachs speech. Here's the video, which has been [View all]

on the internet for a year.

GS hosted a dinner promoting its 10,000 women initiative at the Clinton Foundation. It's all about empowering women in business. The horror!



On September 23, 2014, Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women hosted its annual dinner at the Clinton Global Initiative.

The event featured a keynote address from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the business case for empowering women to ensure future economic growth.


http://www.goldmansachs.com/citizenship/10000women/news-and-events/10kwprogressreport.html

In 2008, the 10,000 Women initiative was launched by the Goldman Sachs Foundation to educate women entrepreneurs in emerging economies. The initiative was designed specifically to provide a business education, access to mentors and networks, and links to capital for 10,000 underserved women operating small businesses. By the close of 2013, the initiative had enrolled its 10,000th woman.

The findings of the report demonstrate that the 10,000 Women initiative makes a difference in how women entrepreneurs grow their businesses, how they develop personally and how they make a contribution to society. The key conclusions of the report are:

• Women can be exceptional entrepreneurs across a diverse array of country and cultural contexts
• 10,000 Women helps entrepreneurs grow their businesses and develop their business acumen
• Mentoring, advising and networks are highly valued in the growth process
Women entrepreneurs grow their businesses despite a lack of external financing
