"I am so thrilled to announce the joint launch of The Inner Mountain Foundation website and its new initiatives. While this is a milestone for the Foundation, it's just the beginning of our journey to empower women everywhere," said Diane.

"The Inner Mountain Foundation is excited to set out on this new adventure as we build a global network of women helping women."

Women everywhere can download The Inner Mountain Foundation's new flagship podcast, "The Climb" featuring Diane and co-host Natasha Walstra, Strategic Partner of The Inner Mountain Foundation. During each episode, the two hosts discuss Diane's Inner Mountain philosophy and explore the resilience and determination of women from around the world as told through personal stories of women navigating personal, professional and emotional challenges.

At its core, The Inner Mountain Foundation is a social enterprise that dedicated to self-empowerment and self-evolution. The Foundation embraces a forward-looking global perspective and plans to establish branches in other major cities around the world after its initial debut in China and North America. These branches resemble satellites orbiting different trajectories, each having its own unique color while sharing a common mission and vision.

As one of China's first-generation internet entrepreneurs, Diane has spearheaded digital economic empowerment projects for women in conjunction with organizations like APEC, the G20 and the WTO?impacting the lives of over 100,000 women across 51 countries and regions. The Inner Mountain Foundation builds on this experience and more as a platform that can facilitate exchange and mutual assistance among women globally. 

Accompanying the launch of its expanded online presence, The Inner Mountain Foundation also launched its first offline event and pilot female empowerment program at DHGATE Group's office in Beijing, China, last week.

Themed "Empowering Women in Cross-Border Industries," the program connected a group of entrepreneurial-minded women and mentors in a series of workshops on mindfulness and inner strength, networking dinners and performances. Together, the group learned how to break down internal walls, open their hearts and inspire others to do the same.

Diane honed and developed her Inner Mountain philosophy while building and growing some of the biggest success stories in e-commerce history. This includes building up one of China's leading B2C online marketplaces, Joyo.com, which was acquired by Amazon, as well as founding China's first cross-border B2B e-commerce platform, DHgate.com, as a digital Silk Road to connect online sellers and buyers around the world.

More recently, DHGATE Group launched MyyShop, an all-in-one social commerce solution that provides a comprehensive suite of digitization tools to ensure that female entrepreneurs, creators, and influencers can quickly start their own digital storefront and effortlessly and efficiently monetize their social media content. With these successes under her belt, Diane now seeks to uplift fellow women through the power of community and help them on the path of fulfillment.

The Inner Mountain philosophy is also detailed in Diane's upcoming The Inner Mountain book?an account of her three-decade-long journey climbing the ladder of China's tech industry and shattering the glass ceiling there at a time when women in tech were extraordinarily rare. It was through many of these early career experiences that she learned how cultivating inner strength and personal mindset can help women achieve inner mastery over external forces and challenges that hold women back from achieving their goals, even in the year 2023.

DHgate today connects more than 59.6 million registered buyers and 2.54 million sellers across the globe in a testament to Diane's hard work and vision?all made possible by finding her personal Inner Mountain, a reservoir of internal strength and willpower that drives women to thrive in every facet of their life. As founder of The Inner Mountain Foundation, Diane will share this wisdom and more by offering impactful educational resources that help women improve soft skills to become their most empowered selves whether at home, at work or out in the community.

The Inner Mountain Foundation has several initiatives in the pipeline to serve its global community. More details can be found at the newly launched website https://innermountain.org/.
