Female Angel Capital Beyond Venture Funds
Join Sisters Female Founders for an intimate, curated gathering focused on the growing influence of female angel investors in shaping the future of startups and innovation.
While venture capital continues to evolve, women are still underrepresented on the cap table. This event brings together female founders, emerging angel investors, and ecosystem leaders to bridge that gap — unlocking access, capital, and opportunity.
🎯 What This Event Is About
This is not a typical panel — it’s a high-signal room designed for:
Women exploring angel investing
Founders looking to understand how to access capital
Investors interested in diversifying their deal flow
Operators transitioning into investing
Panelists: Female Angel Capital Beyond Venture Funds
Christine Moon — Acclaimed Silicon Valley tech operator, executive, and active angel investor. Throughout her 15+ years in the tech ecosystem—including leading partnerships at Google, Dropbox, and co-founding Bluespace.ai—Christine has funneled her deep domain expertise into private markets. As an angel investor, she focuses on scaling early-stage enterprise SaaS, automation, and AI infrastructure platforms, leveraging her cross-border tech background to actively diversify and institutionalize the cap tables of high-growth tech ventures.
Rekha Pai — Seasoned Silicon Valley executive, angel investor, and impact syndicate advisor. Building on over two decades of product development and corporate marketing leadership at major technology firms, Rekha transitioned into a prominent private investor specializing in applied Generative AI, climate tech, and emerging cross-border markets. She structures capital injections that bridge early-stage seed rounds and institutional series financing, helping underrepresented founders architect global go-to-market strategies.
Grace Chen — Founder, CEO of LucidAct Health, and active healthcare IT angel investor. Transitioning from an enterprise software innovator to an impactful private funder, Grace utilizes her specialized capital to back early-stage founders navigating heavily regulated technology sectors. Her investment thesis blends operator-led validation with targeted angel checks, allowing her to de-risk technical compliance and enterprise scaling for early-stage portfolio companies before they approach institutional VC funds.
Anna Zakowska, PhD — Managing Partner at Dragons and Angels Fund, Agentic AI researcher, and 9x serial founder. Anna operates at the cutting edge of deep tech angel syndication, orchestrating private-capital networks that specifically back technical, high-moat startups specializing in LLMs and predictive analytics. Her investment methodology brings institutional, research-driven deal vetting straight into agile angel structures, allowing private checks to effectively back deep-tech breakthroughs at the pre-seed level.
Anna-Sophia E. Haub — Founder of MADE OS, Venture Partner at Tengelmann21, and founding angel investor/member with Brydge Club and Circle Zero. Across nearly a decade advising and leading Fortune 100–500 in sustainable innovation (Under Armour, Kenvue, Rivian, DEXL, Corteva Agriscience, among others) and VC/PE at Plug and Play, Fairbridge Park, and ECP/Tengelmann21, Anna-Sophia has channeled deep cross-border expertise into private markets. As an angel investor, her thesis backs double- and triple-bottom-line ventures disrupting traditional markets across green, climate and consumer tech. She actively mentors female founders and architects the connective tissue between startups, angel investors, family offices, and corporate VCs.
