Excellence for women: history and information

Female entrepreneurship: a winding road to success

Female entrepreneurship still has a long way to go. The global workforce is composed more of men than women, and for equal jobs, the latter are paid less than their male colleagues. In Europe and North America, there are fewer women entrepreneurs than in Asia, a continent where some countries even have a majority of women entrepreneurs compared

to men.

In young Italian companies, the female presence is even smaller than in companies. Various studies, on the other hand, reveal that startups founded by women are more likely to receive investments than those founded by men alone.

In addition, further research has highlighted how women are better suited to identifying market needs and seizing opportunities.

However, there are also some positive signs: in 2021, there was a record number of exits of start-ups founded by women based in Europe, with a total of 23 transactions successfully closed. To support female entrepreneurship in Italy, the Women's Business Fund was established in 2022, with a budget of 200 million euros.

In the wake of these positive data, we at Spaghetti and Mandolino want to encourage this change by promoting the best food products of the best Italian women producers.

Female excellence: here are some of the women producers

Fontana Bio is just one example of the various successful companies in this section. It is an agricultural company founded in the twentieth century that Erica Fontana inherited and today she cares for with care. Since 1996, Erica and her family have followed a strict protocol for all their production processes, in order to respect nature and produce only quality organic products. With her rubber boots, Erica personally takes care of the company's fields and plants. From the ancient broth of Fontana Bio, delicious jams and compotes are born, such as organic pear and cinnamon compote, with no added sugar and ideal for filling various cakes and pastries, or other goodies of various kinds such as the refreshing BIO elderflower syrup, excellent to drink diluted or on top of fruit ice cream

.

Corte Sant'Alda, on the other hand, is the winery headed by Marinella Camerani, named best winemaker in Italy in 2009 by Gambero Rosso. Marinella has been taking care of her vineyards near the province of Verona since the Eighties. Crucial in particular was the year 1985, when, after a terrible harvest, Marinella decided to work hard to bring her grapes to the cellar healthy and ripe. Since that year, the vines of Corte Sant'Alda have only grown luxuriantly, to the point of making the company the successful company that it has become today. Among the various products offered, we can find grappa such as Aged Amarone Vinaccia Grappa, with the particular aromas given by the oak barrels in which it is aged, or wines such as the Valpolicella Doc Cà Fiui 2013

.

Finally, let's mention the FaccidaBere brand by Silvia Facci, one of the first 17 female beer producers in Italy. After doing the most disparate jobs, Silvia decided to dedicate herself to beer, her greatest passion. Silvia highlights how not only can women like beer, but how they are also able to appreciate its value and, like her, produce it. As the first label, it produced a Session IPA, an American-style beer with a low alcohol content (4.5%) perfect for

aperitifs.
