Manzana members embrace equity on this International Women’s Day!
If we want to #EmbraceEquity, we need to know how!
It's easy to say but not easy to achieve it. That's why Urban List united start-up founders, CEOs, creatives, and coaches to inspire us by advising how we can change our perspective and make a (real) difference.
Did we already tell you three of our wonderful Manzana members made it to this list and gave us their input? Here they are!

“Embracing equity in my world means funding more women entrepreneurs, particularly Māori, Pacific people, and women of colour in Aotearoa... If we want to be leaders in inclusive, thriving entrepreneurship AND do better for our people and planet, we need to fund more women-led start-ups.”
Suki Xiao
“It's about knowing the privileges you hold, learning the challenges that people who are not like you face, and being able to empathise with and acknowledge the marginalised individuals’ and communities’ lived experiences.”
Nikki Goodson
“… It's important to get to know the people and system you're working with. Even better when we can enable communities to create their own solutions. One example that comes to mind that I've been working with is Manzana—a women-led entrepreneurship hub.”
