FAQ

Why should I join an entrepreneur community?

Why not? Or, in other words:
When you acquire the knowledge and tools you need to grow, then you have a much better chance of achieving the goals you set. However, when you also find yourself in a community, with other women who are on the same wavelength and want to support each other, join forces and learn from each other's experience, then any business goal you set can become a reality - and you can enjoy yourself in the meantime!

How do I find out about Female Founders Hub themed circles?

Upcoming cycles will be announced on the site, our social media and of course through the monthly FFH Newsletter. If you don’t already follow us, you can do so on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok!

What is the POWER UP package that was included in the original announcement?

POWER UP is a package that gives access, in addition to the 11 aforementioned meetings, to the FFH Mastermind Group, a closed group of female entrepreneurs who join forces online once a month, with the aim of working in depth on their business challenges, and create a tight, active circle of mutual support and exchange of advice, tools, opinions and knowledge.

Registration for this package closed on December 1st, but you’ll have another chance to express your interest next year!

Are there selection criteria for the Female Founders Hub?

To join the Female Founders Hub you must be a female entrepreneur, with 3+ years of business experience, and a willingness to grow.

Can I opt-in whenever I want?

The answer is yes! Applications for the GROW package, which includes 11 meetings per year, are still open and memberships last for 12 months.

Can I take part in FFH while I'm away?
