    The Big Why

    Girls can't be what they can't see.

    They lack visible role models, real-world skills, and clear pathways showing entrepreneurship is an option for them too.

    FAQ

    Everything parents, educators, and young entrepreneurs need to know.

    We Can Be is built for girls aged 6–18. Our books (Maya's Big Business Adventure) are designed for ages 6–9, our workbooks for ages 10–14, and our online courses span three tracks: Pioneers (9–11), Innovators (12–14), and Trailblazers (15–18). Parents and educators can use our resources with girls of any age.

    She'll develop confidence, creativity, problem-solving, financial literacy, communication skills, and entrepreneurial thinking. These aren't just business skills - they're life skills. Through interactive tools, real founder stories, and hands-on courses, she'll learn to turn ideas into action.

    Not at all. Many of our tools and courses are designed to help girls discover what they're passionate about and develop ideas from scratch. Our AI Idea Machine, Passion-to-Profit Mapper, and Spark Map Builder are perfect starting points for girls who are curious but don't know where to begin.

    No - it's about building a mindset. Entrepreneurial skills like creative thinking, resilience, teamwork, and financial awareness are valuable no matter what path she chooses. Whether she becomes a founder, a scientist, an artist, or anything else, these skills will serve her for life.

    We provide free curriculum-aligned kits for four age tracks (Explorers 6-8, Pioneers 9-11, Innovators 12-14, Trailblazers 15-18). Each kit includes an editable PowerPoint with facilitator notes on every slide, a Facilitator Guide PDF (running orders, SEND adaptations, showcase guide) and a Student Workbook PDF with a business plan canvas and Future Founder Award certificate. Everything maps to PSHE, Careers Education and Enterprise & Financial Education frameworks - and is designed to be delivered with confidence, even with no business background.

    Yes. Every kit is designed for inclusion: a dedicated SEND & Inclusion page in the Facilitator Guide, specific adaptations for every mission, and activities that can always be drawn, spoken, built or scribed rather than written. Adapt the route, never the destination.

    Absolutely - every track includes setting guidance for classrooms, after-school clubs, Guides & Scouts units and full enterprise days. It's adapted from the real enterprise programmes we've delivered with Google and leading UK schools, and it's open to all pupils.

    Our mission is to close the confidence and visibility gap for girls, which is why our role models and stories centre female founders. But our courses, AI tools, and resources teach skills that are valuable for everyone - and anyone is welcome to use them.

    We Can Be is a UK-based social enterprise, headquartered in the United Kingdom. Our role models are predominantly UK-based female founders, and our content reflects the UK education system and business landscape. However, our online tools and courses are accessible globally.
