From the outside, the picture looks strong. Women are visible. Women are launching businesses. Women are building brands and communities. But visibility and genuine support are not always the same thing. Three women who know this first-hand join us on Starting Up this week:

Carmen Taubman, Founder of Crew Club, a business community that promises real results from collaborations and connections

Amreen Iqbal, Founder and Creative Director of Piece of You - creating which is a division of Pure Gold Group. The focus is on personalised jewellery - and recently one of her designs - a UAE map shaped pendant, is more popular than ever 

and Denisa Alexe, stand-up comedian and content creator - who built a following of millions, right here in the UAE.
