Investors and Founders Talk – Closing the Funding Gap

Join us for a practical and insightful conversation about startup funding. We'll explore how to close the funding gap for female-led startups and discuss actionable steps for navigating the investment landscape. This session will feature two dynamic panels:

 Founder Panel – Hear from a diverse group of founders about their real-world experiences with securing funding — the challenges they faced, what worked, and what they wish they had known earlier.
