Background:
With the British Business Bank's landmark commitment of £400m for diverse fund managers and a further £50m to the Invest in Women Taskforce, there is unprecedented momentum to support underrepresented founders. This historic infusion of capital presents a pivotal opportunity to address the persistent funding gap for female-led businesses and catalyse meaningful change within the UK’s investment landscape.
This event series provides a timely and essential platform for investors, founders, and funders to convene. We will facilitate critical conversations to explore how this new capital can be effectively deployed, dismantle existing barriers, and develop actionable strategies for progress. Together, we will build on this momentum, aiming to forge an ecosystem that establishes the UK as the most attractive and supportive country in the world for female investors and entrepreneurs to succeed and thrive.
