Many of Goshen’s Most Innovative Business Owners are Women
Anne Thiel and Abbie Welch • The Good of Goshen
What is it about this city that makes it such arable ground for women entrepreneurs?
For local business owners Abbie Welch and Anne Thiel, it has to do with the many opportunities they have to connect with other entrepreneurs in the area. “The community is very welcoming, I’ve only been here 3 years and I already feel more comfortable here than any where else I’ve lived,” said Thiel. Welch agreed, saying, “Being a woman entrepreneur is not lonely [in Goshen,] it’s empowering.
