Corporate Partners
WEOC works with corporate partners who share our values and vision of strengthening women’s entrepreneurship across Canada.
What we do
Working with member organizations across the country, WEOC represents a network of organizations committed to creating a more inclusive entrepreneurial system. We do this through delivering the WEOC National Loan Program, developing a library of tools and resources, and providing engaging programming tackling emerging topics.
WEOC continues to be a leading voice in the entrepreneurial ecosystem and we bring together the ecosystem throughout the year to explore challenges and opportunities.
Why it matters
Women entrepreneurs face many obstacles to starting and growing their businesses, from accessing capital to gender biases. Only 17 percent of Canadian small and medium-sized businesses are majority owned by women. But these businesses also represent a contribution of $150 billion to the Canadian economy and employ over 1.5 million people.
Our Impact

The WEOC National Loan Program has over $30 million in support from the federal government to provide inclusive financing to women entrepreneurs
More than 185+ applications fielded, with more than $7 million approved
