How do you distinguish yourself from other platforms (e.g., Radical Girl Gang) that are essentially doing the same thing?

I am investing in The W Marketplace because women make great entrepreneurs. In my past 7.5 years at Amazon I’ve had the privilege to work with some of the most inspiring women owned businesses. In my next chapter, I look forward to empowering even more women through The W Marketplace. More than just a platform, The W Marketplace is an economic engine supporting women so they can find the resources they need to launch, grow, and succeed in business.
