Women-owned businesses are growing at an astounding 5x faster rate than male owned businesses nationally and represent the fastest growing segment of our national economy. Over the past year in Connecticut alone, 125,000 women-owned businesses have generated $16.5 billion in sales. Women entrepreneurs, a bright spot in Connecticut’s economy, need to have the right resources to start and operate businesses. Today Fran Pastore, head of Ct’s Women’s Business Development Council, joins me in studio to discuss the state of Women’s Entrepreneurship and why It’s more important now than ever to support women-owned businesses.

Nearly half of Americans may have had their information stolen in the massive Equifax data breach revealed last week, and experts say freezing your credit is one line of defense. How do you determine if you were exposed in the Equifax breach? Visit Equifax’s website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com, and click on the tab that says “Potential Impact.” You’ll be asked to enter your last name and the last six digits of your Social Security number. You’ll either get a message that says “we believe that your personal information was not impacted by this incident” or “we believe that your personal information may have been impacted by this incident.”
