Beyond cyber: Global Sisters.
Not every story we care about is a security story. Global Sisters backs women rebuilding their lives through business ownership, and KBI.Media proudly backs them.
Business, made possible for all women.
Global Sisters is an Australian not-for-profit that exists to make business possible for all women, backing those locked out of mainstream employment to become financially resilient and stand tall as micro business founders. Their words for it are the right ones: Back Her Brilliance.
Many of the women they back are starting again after domestic and family violence, rebuilding safety, stability and an income on their own terms. Global Sisters meets them with something rarer and more durable than sympathy: a genuine pathway to financial independence through a business of their own.
KBI.Media has nothing to do with cybersecurity here, and that is the point. This company was built from a standing start: the drive, the struggle, the long unglamorous middle, and the new horizons that only open when you keep going. Watching Global Sisters equip women to walk that same founder road, from a far harder starting line, made supporting them the easiest decision on our books.
“Building a business from nothing asks everything of you, and I chose that fight. The women Global Sisters backs are taking it on while rebuilding their whole lives. Backing them isn’t charity, it’s recognising brilliance and getting behind it.”
Karissa Breen, founder, KBI.Media
KBI.Media proudly supports Global Sisters’ work. We’d encourage anyone who has ever built something of their own to do the same.
A real pathway, not a pamphlet.
Sister School
Practical business education that takes an idea and gives it structure: the skills, planning and confidence to trade.
Business coaching
Free one-on-one coaching from volunteer business coaches, hours given so a founder never has to figure it out alone.
Sister Pitch
A pitch program that puts founders in front of an audience and backs the best ideas with real support.
Solo Mums in Business
Dedicated support for single mothers building an income around the realities of raising children on their own.
Program details are Global Sisters’ own; explore them in full at globalsisters.org.
Locked Out
Hosted by Heidi Albertiri and Mandy Richards.
Locked Out tells the stories of women who have been through the Global Sisters program, in their own voices: what they walked away from, what they built, and what standing on your own income actually feels like.
The series is in production now. Episodes will live right here, a home of their own alongside the organisation they celebrate.
First episodes coming soon.
Back her brilliance too.
A donation funds coaching, education and the unglamorous essentials of getting a business trading. Time works too, they take volunteer business coaches.
If you or someone you know is affected by domestic or family violence, support is available: in Australia, call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 (24 hours).
