Forbes Women's Summit focuses on entrepreneurship
福布斯女性峰会畅谈创业问题
Hundreds of female entrepreneurs and business leaders across various industries gather for Forbes Women Summit in New York. The theme for this year's summit is entrepreneurship -- how some of the most successful women built their businesses, the challenges they faced and how they transformed the rules of engagement.
While women in the upper echelons of corporations around the world continue to fight for equality and progress, women entrepreneurs have something to rejoice about. According to social enterprise firm Womenable, women-owned firms raking in revenues of at least $10 million have increased by 57% over the last decade. For many of these self-made entrepreneurs, it wasn't an easy climb to the top.
At this year's annual Forbes Women Summit, some of the world's most successful women share their struggles. Jennifer Hyman, co-founder of Rent the Runway, a retail company which makes designer dresses for rent, describes one meeting with a top venture capitalist that left her feeling dismissed.
"As a woman, I found I was always doubted on my analytical abilities so I felt like I had to lead with that in order to convince them that I know what I'm talking about, and I know how to bring the business to profitability. And at the end of the pitch, the head of the firm comes up to me, he grabs my hand in his, cups my hand and says, "You are just so adorable..." said Jennifer Hyman, co-founder, Rent the Runway.
Real estate developer and entrepreneur Ivanka Trump shares a similar story.
"We were in the Middle East, just landed, and we get off the plane and we're ready to go to the meetings, and we're all psyched up, it's my first business trip and the gentlemen who were there to greet us took my brother in one car and me in another and five minutes later, we pull up at a mall. And I said, "Where are we " because we had a divide and conquer strategy, we had several meetings scheduled. And he said, "They thought you'd prefer to go shopping but your brothers are at the office," Trump said.
"One conversation we heard time and time again is access to capital.If you look at the traditional capital opportunities, venture capital and the like, it's such a huge challenge for women to get funded. The number of women in the VC world is still marginal and so many of the big VC firms are dominated by men and they often may not have the appetite or understand the market that these women are trying to enter," said Moira Forbes, executive VP, Forbes Media.
Despite the roadblocks, the number of women-owned firms in the U.S. continues to climb. It's now estimated there are nearly nine and a half million in America, making up almost a third of all businesses across the country.
"...one of the things I say as a female entrepreneur I've noticed that one of my greatest strengths is also my weakness and that as a woman being underestimated. So being underestimated hurt me along the journey, but it also helped me along the journey," said Sarah Blakely, founder, Spanx.
According to some studies, the number of wealthy women across the U.S. is growing twice as fast as men. It's not just wealthy women funding other women entrepreneurs. Crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter and Indiegogo have also helped. Almost half of Indiegogo's successful campaigns are run by women.

College students attempt to cash in on stocks
股市创新高吸引大学生
China’s stock market hit a seven-year high once again on Friday, with the Shanghai Composite Index closing at 5166.35 points. Despite occasional volatility, this year alone, there has been a rise of more than 50 percent on the market. As the recent bull run continues, millions of new retail investors are pouring into the market. Among them, many are college students.
It’s nearly the end of his first year in university and 19-year-old civil engineering student Dai Jinkun is beginning to feel the pressure of the upcoming final exams. But unlike his peers, he has another matter to worry about too. How the stocks in his portfolio are performing.
Dai Jinkun said:"I think I’m still an amateur. But I’m a lucky man. So I have earned some money."
So far Jinkun has made over 2 hundred Yuan with the special fund of 5,000 yuan he got from his parents. That’s not bad considering he’s been in the market only for a short time.
He also said:"I began to buy stocks 3 to 4 months ago. I did that because my parents told me, I need to learn some basics about the stock market. But they don’t expect me to live solely on this."
Stories of success continue to lure new investors in. From May the 25th to the 29th alone, over 4.4 million new trading accounts were opened, according to the China Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation. But with most newcomers having little-to-no financial background, there are concerns about whether they’re really ready to plunge into the market.
In Jinkun's class there are still several other students investing in stocks. According to an online survey targeted at college students by Xinhua News Agency, about 30% of those surveyed are betting on stocks right now. Some of them are even using their living expense to make bets. Jinkun's Physics teacher Li Shaoxin feels these students need to be extra cautious.
"I don’t want to encourage college students to bet on stocks for two reasons. One is, that their main focus right now should be studying. If they buy stocks then they’ll have to spend lots of time with it, and as a result their grades will be affected. The second reason is that the stock market is risky. Once there is a plunge in the market, I’m not sure these students and their families are capable of withstanding the loss," said Li Shaoxin, Physics Professor of South China University of Technology.
Jinkun’s mother is a veteran in the stock market, so he’s very well informed about the potential risk. So the moment China’s stock market index broke through 5,000, he stopped buying. But for thousands of others pouring into the market, financial education and risk awareness need to be strengthened.
Wang Renzeng, Executive Dean of School Of Economics & Commerce, SCUT said:"It’s irrational to follow the trend, fly blind into the market, become impulsive and believe in all the rags to riches stories. Everyone should learn some basics about stocks and investment."
Financial literacy among ordinary Chinese is very limited since the country only opened its first stock exchange in Shanghai in 1990. Even now, there are many small investors relying on rumors or tips from friends in the hope of cashing in. But for college students, buying stocks can always be a way of learning and feeling the pulse of the Chinese economy, though at a cost.
