Business ideas are a dime a dozen but not everyone can grow their idea into a fully-fledged, profitable company. For some, this challenge is what prevents them from "becoming their own boss," however, start-up founder and CEO Lola Fernandez says that would-be entrepreneurs shouldn't be afraid of it. Why? Because countless incubators and accelerator programs are there to help.  Lola Fernandez is the founder and CEO of Green Cloud Nine, an e-commerce marketplace based in Tyrol, Austria that aims to make sustainable products more mainstream and more accessible. Besides encouraging sustainable consumption, it also hopes to promote the United Nations SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth and SDG 13: Climate Action.
