Session: Angel Investing for C-Suite Women - How to Build Legacy and Generational Wealth
Female founders start businesses at the similar rate as men yet 50% drop off in early stages due to lack of access capital. In 2022, women received less than 2% of all VC funding. In addition, only 12% of all decision makers in VC funds are women.
This has a cascading effect:
1. The world is missing out on solutions to problems that often disproportionately affect women like reproductive health.
2. Due to lack of representation on investor seats, such solutions are not considered worthy of investment and get passed over.
Women with power and money, like you, have the ability to level the playing field and help change the future of investing. In this session we will show you how to jumpstart your side career as an investor.
