Early-stage female entrepreneurs have a new opportunity to take their businesses to the next level with the help of Nancy Twine and her latest project, the Makers Mindset Workshop & Grant.
Nancy Twine is a beauty-industry pioneer. She helped usher in the “skinification” of hair care with the launch of Briogeo in 2013, and then became the youngest Black woman to introduce a product line at Sephora. When she sold Briogeo to Wella in 2022, a whole new role for her began. Here, Twine, the Keynote speaker for CEW’s 2024 Visionary Awards, reveals what she’s been up to since the acquisition (hint: a lot) — as well as why she believes a trailblazer must pave a path for others.
CEW honored five exceptional female entrepreneurs for their commitment to leadership, innovation, impact, and supporting other women.
