791 Elizabeth Gore: Co-Founder & President of Hello Alice

On today’s episode, we welcome Elizabeth Gore, President and Co-Founder of Hello Alice — the technology platform helping more than 1.5 million small business owners access capital, connections, and education so they can grow and thrive.
Elizabeth sits at the intersection of entrepreneurship, finance, and impact. Alongside her co-founder Carolyn Rodz, she built Hello Alice to address one of the most persistent challenges founders face: the lack of fair, affordable access to resources — particularly for overlooked and underestimated entrepreneurs. Through Hello Alice, Elizabeth has helped reshape how small businesses engage with banks, corporations, and financial institutions, while keeping founders’ real needs at the center of everything.
In this episode, Elizabeth shares how Hello Alice was built from the ground up, the early challenges of earning trust and scale, and what she’s learned from supporting millions of entrepreneurs across industries and geographies. We discuss access to capital, the evolving role of financial institutions, leadership lessons from rapid growth, and what founders should be thinking about as we head into 2026 and beyond. This conversation is packed with insight for entrepreneurs, operators, and anyone focused on building more inclusive systems that actually work.
