Why are Women Funded Less than Men? a crowdsourced conversation
I spent 5 years in London trying to raise funding for my online matchmaking business & in the end had to admit failure. Very early on in that journey I had committed to help women source venture when I was successful. As it turned out I have been doing just that for the last almost year, not because I was successful but because I failed. I have been video interviewing venture capitalists, angel investors & women founders on the shortfall in funding for women. My goal has been to listen to as many people as I could from both sides of the table, so I could hopefully determine where all these conversations intersected.
