Why GIG7?

Women face different challenges when starting a business, during the startup phase, and after launching their business. The transition to self-employment requires not only professional expertise, a high level of commitment, and a well-thought-out business plan, but also a high degree of self-organization when it comes to balancing family and business. We have been providing professional support with our expert know-how for over 20 years and successfully offer personalized consulting and assistance.

The GIG7 Community is an active network for exchange, both online and offline. News about the GIG7 Startup Center and topics related to entrepreneurship and women in business is published four times a year in our Newsletter. You can also stay up to date by following us on social media.
