Female Founder Pitch Night
Female founders get about 2% of venture funding. The answer isn't another panel talking about the problem.
On Wednesday 25th November, networkd and Tide are putting six founders on stage at Tide HQ to pitch live to our expert panel who can move the dial, in a room full of people who can actually help them get further.
