“Beyond the Bag” with Rebecca Minkoff – Reward Podcast Episode 17
The most successful entrepreneurs almost appear to have a sixth sense of predicting the future. Breakthrough ideas take a certain amount of foresight and (dare we say it) delusion to succeed in predicting the next big thing. (Because you need to believe what may not be “true” now… before the world catches up.) For designer Rebecca Minkoff – that sixth sense came instinctively. And then her big breakthrough in the early 2000s was actress Jenna Elfman wearing a distinctly Minkoff-designed tee on a late-night TV appearance. The rest was history. Rebecca is a luminary in the world of fashion, synonymous with accessible luxury, her edgy designs and innovative business strategies have taken her namesake brand to incredible reach and revenues. She is not only the co-founder and creative force behind the globally recognized brand Rebecca Minkoff, but also a passionate advocate for women in business via her Female Founder Collective.
