Doone Roisin is a globally recognised voice for women's economic empowerment and a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader '25.
She is the Founder and Host of the Female Startup Club, one of the world's top-ranking podcasts dedicated to women in business — featuring 700+ episodes with global CEOs, billionaires, prime ministers, artists, athletes and entrepreneurs at the height of their careers. Guests include Allison Ellsworth, founder of Poppi, which sold for $1.96B; Jo Malone OBE, one of the most decorated figures in global fragrance; and 4x Olympian turned entrepreneur Bronte Campbell.
What began six years ago has grown into a global media ecosystem reaching 160,000+ women generating 50M+ impressions and partnering with world-leading brands including Swarovski and HubSpot. In 2024, Doone was accepted into Techstars — one of the world's most competitive business accelerators, with a 1% acceptance rate — to scale Female Startup Club into a modern media company.
Doone's work sits at the intersection of media, entrepreneurship and economic policy. She has made six angel investments into female-founded companies, was the first donor to the women's entrepreneurship program at UNSW Sydney — prompting Westpac to follow — and is an official donor to the Malala Fund. She was awarded Young Australian of the Year in the UK, presented at Australia House in London, and subsequently invited to Buckingham Palace by the King and Queen Consort in recognition of her contribution to women and girls across the Commonwealth.
She has been featured in Forbes, Girlboss and Refinery29, and speaks on global stages including Davos and Create & Cultivate. Doone brings rare credibility both as a builder of a 7-figure media business and as someone with years inside the rooms where the world's most successful women speak candidly about what's actually working.
