Jacqueline Gold is the CEO of the retail brands Ann Summers and Knickerbox. She joined the business at the age of 19 for work experience, and faced resistance because her father, David Gold, was the owner. By the time she was 21, she had persuaded the largely sceptical all-male board to invest in her radical idea: to re-invent the Ann Summers brand by selling lingerie and sex toys at women-only parties held in their homes. Along with the parties, there are now over 100 high street shops, with a multi-million pound turnover.

Jacqueline’s childhood was difficult after her parents divorced when she was 12. Although she was a shy child, she worked throughout her teens which brought her a degree of financial independence and resilience. Today she’s a strong advocate of female empowerment, supports women in business and has set up the WOW incentive on Twitter.

Jacqueline was awarded a CBE in 2016 and was ranked as the 16th wealthiest female entrepreneur by The Sunday Times in 2017. Happily married for the second time, she and her husband Dan underwent several courses of IVF treatment, and she eventually conceived twins. One of the children, Alfie, only survived for eight months. Their daughter, Scarlett is now aged nine.

杰奎琳-戈尔德是零售品牌Ann Summers和Knickerbox的CEO。她在19岁时因工作经验而加入该企业，并面临着阻力，因为她的父亲David Gold是该企业的所有者。在她21岁的时候，她说服了基本上持怀疑态度的全男性董事会对她的激进想法进行投资：通过在女性家里举行的聚会上销售内衣和性玩具，重新打造Ann Summers品牌。除了这些聚会，现在还有100多家高街商店，营业额达数百万英镑。

杰奎琳的童年是艰难的，因为她的父母在她12岁时离婚了。虽然她是一个害羞的孩子，但她在整个十几岁时都在工作，这给她带来了一定程度的经济独立和适应能力。今天，她是女性赋权的坚定倡导者，支持女性经商，并在Twitter上设立了WOW激励机制。

杰奎琳在2016年被授予CBE，并在2017年被《星期日泰晤士报》评为第16位最富有的女性企业家。幸福的第二次婚姻，她和丈夫丹经历了几个疗程的试管婴儿治疗，她最终怀上了双胞胎。其中一个孩子Alfie只存活了八个月。他们的女儿斯嘉丽现在已经9岁了。
