Entrepreneuse Live
 
 
Our mission is to promote female entrepreneurship and to encourage more women regardless of race, creed, colour, disability, religion or culture to embark on a journey towards breaking through the 'glass ceiling' and rising through the ranks. This website is all about women whose disillusionment in securing that elusive top position in the corporate world proceeds to setup their own business and make their own mark on the economy. There are women who prefer to be self-employed and setup their home-based business. There are those who have been employed most of their lives and upon retirement need to busy themselves in a business all their own. Some women are not able to leave home to be employed because they are caring for their babies but needs to augment the family income.There are various reasons that motivate women to setup their own business. Whatever the reason we aim to chronicle their achievements.
 
 
History
 
Entrepreneuse Live was founded on the 3rd February 2007 by Grace Long who is participating in a masters degree programme on entrepreneurship focusing on female entrepreneurs run by the University of Glamorgan in South Wales. Grace's passion for learning and personal development sparked this idea to provide a knowledge base for females with similar ideas and thoughts.
 
Grace who is from the Philippines has extensive experience in business marketing and management having been employed in the public sector as a writer under the Office of President Marcos' marine turtle conservation project as well as in the private sector where she rose from a secretarial to assistant vice president post in various industries such as computers and software development, restaurant and hotel management, recruitment agencies, newspaper and magazine publishing, and running a basic education unit in Southeast Asia's largest computer education network.
 
She relocated to California and lived there for 4 years where she met her husband, Tim. Grace now supports her husband in growing TiGra Networks as a player in the small business arena in South Wales.
 
Live Assistant Business Solutions (LABS), a new virtual assistance and business support service, was launched in the Ideal Business Show at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff on 13-14 June 2007 as a member of the Rhondda Cynon Taf Business Club.
