A mompreneur is a mom who is an
entrepreneur and an entrepreneur who is a mom! The
term "mompreneur" is trademarked in Canada by
Kathryn Bechthold, founder of The Mompreneur
Networking Group Inc. and The Mompreneur
Magazine.
For many of us mompreneurs, launching and running our
own business is an effective avenue for personal and
professional fulfillment -- a fluid work arrangement that
readily accommodates the many uncertainties and daily
challenges that we face as moms. mom2mom
toronto was created out of such
a desire, and our goal here is to support and advocate
for other mompreneurs and moms who seek to go into business
for themselves too.
After all, who else know better what
a mompreneur needs than other mompreneurs
themselves!
