Voices of Inspiration for Women Entrepreneurs

WEChampion is a series of video conversations hosted by Maggie Lake, former CNN business anchor featuring personal stories of We-Fi’s Leadership Champions. These videos are aimed to inspire women entrepreneurs, especially those facing challenges from COVID-19.
