Everywoman (stylized in all lowercase) is a membership organization based in the United Kingdom that advocates for advancement of women in business to close the gender pay gap. It provides personal development resources, leadership training, events, award programmes, networking opportunities and inspiration for women in business and female entrepreneurs.[1] They work closely with government, opinion formers and business support organisations, with sponsors including NatWest and Specsavers.[citation needed]
In November 2010, everywoman launched the Modern Muse project, designed to engage the next generation of female business leaders and entrepreneurs by showcasing women of today in all walks of business life. Its goal was to reach out to one million young women and girls to inspire them to look at business careers and entrepreneurship as a way to achieve their dreams.[2]
It was founded in September 1999 by friends Karen Gill and Maxine Benson, after they felt frustrated with the lack of resources available for women in business in the UK.[3] Karen Gill and Maxine Benson were awarded MBEs in the New Year's Honours 2009 for their services to women's enterprise.[4][5]
