Welcome to WikiProject Women in Business, a WikiProject dedicated to ensuring quality and coverage of biographies of women in business. Unfortunately, part of Wikipedia's systemic bias is that women in business are underrepresented. Let's change that!

Scope

This project aims to promote the significant part women have played in business, both historically and increasingly in our developing world. To many of our contributors, in contrast to art, writing and science, business may appear to be a rather boring area for creating new biographies and supporting articles but given the wide variety of women's initiatives, there are areas which should have wide appeal. A few suggestions for coverage are given below.

Businesswomen:

company owners or executives
bankers
investment and financial specialists

Women with business interests in:

architecture
art galleries
fashion and cosmetics
hotels and restaurants
newspapers and publishing
theatre, cinema, television

Entrepreneurs:

award winners
key sector players

Related interests:

academics
authors
researchers
professional organizations
