Our initial research provided some insights and statistics on the requested information around female empowerment companies and other topics. However, some data points might not be fully available in public sources and may need to be triangulated or supplemented with helpful insights. Given this, we propose continuing the research to deliver the requested information in several blocks. (1) Provide 5-7 additional statistics or insights on what the market looks like for female empowerment communities and businesses. (2) Provide 5 market leaders in the female empowerment space. These key players can be defined by revenue or other metrics. For each player, we will provide the company name, website link, why it is a market leader, and its unique selling proposition. (3) Provide 2-3 examples of textile (and other consumer lifestyle goods) brands and companies that are breaking ground with sustainable production practices, sales approaches, materials, or other techniques. (4) Provide 2-3 insights on the best (cost-effective) production techniques for textiles in Europe and the US. (5) Provide 2-3 of the most cost-effective locations for textile manufacturing in Europe and the US. For each location, we will provide the reason why it is the most cost-effective. (6) Provide 2-3 examples of lifestyle brand licensing royalties and different setups. We will focus first on footwear and outdoor brands such as Adidas and Burton. We will expand the category as needed. (7) Provide 2-3 of the best examples of purpose-driven commerce and how the brands communicate their purpose vs. commerce and transparency.

For a more affordable option, we recommend proceeding with the research to provide 5-7 general insights on female empowerment in businesses.
