On March 8th, we celebrate International Women’s Day around the world. A day dedicated to empowerment, equality, and celebrating women who make an impact in their careers, as entrepreneurs, and in their everyday lives.
For LABAREAU, this day carries an extra special meaning. The brand was founded by Lindsay van der Looij, a female entrepreneur with a clear vision and the ambition to build a strong and meaningful brand. Female entrepreneurship therefore forms the foundation of LABAREAU.
What is International Women’s Day?
International Women’s Day is celebrated every year on March 8th and highlights women’s rights, equal opportunities, and economic independence worldwide.
The day is not only a moment of appreciation, but also a call for awareness. Although significant progress has been made, equality in entrepreneurship and leadership remains an important point of attention.
The growth of female entrepreneurship
The number of female entrepreneurs is growing, both in the Netherlands and internationally. More and more women are starting their own businesses and building strong, distinctive brands.
However, female founders still appear to have less access to investments and business networks. This is exactly why visibility is so important. When female entrepreneurs share their stories, they inspire others to take the same step.
International Women’s Day emphasizes how important it is to support and celebrate female entrepreneurship.
LABAREAU: founded by Lindsay van der Looij
LABAREAU was born from vision and perseverance. Founder Lindsay van der Looij started the brand after identifying a need for innovation in the market. By combining more than twenty years of experience with the power of science, Lindsay was able to develop a skincare line based on a revolutionary formula.
Entrepreneurship requires courage. It requires confidence in your ideas and the willingness to take risks. As a female entrepreneur, this sometimes means facing additional challenges, but it also brings a unique strength.
Why women in business matter
Diversity in entrepreneurship leads to innovation and better decision-making. More women in leadership means more perspectives, more creativity, and greater balance in the business world.
By consciously supporting women-owned businesses, we contribute to economic independence and a more equal entrepreneurial landscape.
International Women’s Day reminds us that real progress happens when women support and empower one another.
The meaning of International Women’s Day for LABAREAU
For LABAREAU, International Women’s Day is not just a campaign. It is a moment of pride and reflection. Pride in the fact that LABAREAU was founded by Lindsay van der Looij. Pride in the growth we have experienced. And a clear awareness of the responsibility to continue making female entrepreneurship visible.
