Entrepreneurial Development for Women

It’s not about ideas. It’s about making ideas happen.

Our Commitment to you

Empowering and Supporting your Amazing Race to Entrepreneurial Freedom

According to Forbes:
Roughly 80% of small businesses survive the first year
Only about half of small businesses (45.4% to 51%) survive pass the five-year mark
Beyond that, only about one in three (33%) small businesses get to the 10-year mark and live to tell the tale.
That means approx 13.5 % of all small business make it beyond 10 years!!

Our aim is to drastically improve those statistics!

BPD works with you to make you and your business strong enough to go to year 11 and beyond! Our programmes are designed to help you reconnect to your passion and fall back in love with your business again.
