Ed converses with London and Ghana-based entrepreneur Izzy Obeng, the Managing Director of Foundervine. Ed and Izzy look at the issue of why there is still too little funding for start-ups with female or minority leadership. Izzy's consultancy was established to address the social and economic inequality that’s faced by women and young people from under-served communities when starting a business or social enterprise. Obeng discusses why Foundervine’s workshops and programs begin with pre-teen students, and how their broad-based approach is yielding a strong record of success.
