What FFR members have to say

I’ve never experienced a community like it. A simple ask on the WhatsApp group or LinkedIn sparks so much support from hundreds of women. If you're a female business owner, you need to be part of Female Founders Rise.
Jas Schembri-Stothart
Co Founder - Luna
The FFR community has been truly transformative. It has connected me with inspiring women—women I can serve, collaborate with, and even call my business partners. Being part of this community has changed my life.
Ozlem Tuskan
Founder - The Resilient
FFR is more than just a community; it’s a powerful support system. Whether you’re just starting out or already running your business, there’s something here for every female founder—resources, advice, opportunities, and, most importantly, a circle of women who genuinely cheer for each other.
