Female founders – growing women’s entrepreneurship with Deborah Choi, Bosque

But, as the song goes, “sisters are doin’ it for themselves” to create and share opportunities in the workforce. Born in Nigeria and raised in the US, Deborah Choi has been a successful serial entrepreneur for years. With her first startup – launched while she was finishing her degree at the University of Chicago – Deborah landed on Bloomberg BusinessWeek’s top “25 under 25” list. Now living in Berlin, Deborah is the managing director and co-founder of Bosque, a tech-enabled, direct-to-consumer plant startup.

In episode #14 of Campus 10178, the ESMT Berlin podcast, Deborah speaks about the critical role of mentorship, networks, and investment for female founders and women of color in entrepreneurship. As with plants, nurturing growth can yield great results.
