When Kate Korngold started playing golf as a kid, she noticed something frustrating: there were almost no golf clothes designed for teenage girls.
So instead of waiting for a major brand to solve the problem, she decided to build the company herself.
In this episode of The Big Idea, Featherie founder and CEO Kate Korngold joins Yahoo Finance’s Elizabeth Gore alongside her mother Christie Korngold to talk about building a golf apparel brand as a teenager, navigating entrepreneurship while still in school, and creating products specifically designed for young women entering the sport.
