We’re familiar with the statistics: Women own about 40 percent of the private businesses in the United States, according to the Center for Women’s Business Research.

As a member of Astia's team of Advisors that participated in the two-month program for the presenting companies, I was highly impressed with the quality of companies. In AzERx, I knew I had come across a high potential, early stage company that I would not have seen except for Astia.
