About Event

Join us for a fun and intimate evening of drinks, insightful conversation, and connection as we discuss the roadblocks and opportunities that exist for female founders and CEOs.

Expa's Managing Director, Lisa Besserman, will be hosting a fireside chat with visionary venture-backed CEOs and founders to dive deep into the unique challenges female founders face as they build and scale their disruptive tech startups.

Lisa will be joined by:

  • Gabriella Yitzhaek - CEO & Co-founder of Smartrr

  • Tina Beilinson - CEO & Co-founder of Seven Starling

  • Hayley Caddes - CEO & Founder of Chill Pill

  • Renee Russo - CTO & Co-founder of glow

They'll be sharing their origin stories, effective strategies around raising a venture fund, and discussing strategies to scale their startups.

Before and after the conversation, guests will be able to connect over drinks (non-alcoholic available), enjoy small bites, and choose from a selection of press-on nail designs provided by chillhouse.

This event was created in collaboration with glow, beauty made social, and Female Founder Friends. Join Female Founder Friends, a global community for underrepresented founders to connect, collaborate​, and support one another as they build their businesses (@femalefounderf).

We're looking forward to meeting you!

Please note:

  • While we believe in fostering a culture of inclusivity, we also believe that underrepresented founders deserve a spotlight and direct access to resources, therefore this event is open to female-identifying and non-binary participants only.

  • Due to the intimate nature of the event, there is a cap on the number of participants that can attend - your registration is confirmed once approved.

  • Being vaccinated and free of COVID-related symptoms is mandatory to attend.

  • If for whatever reason you're unable to attend, we kindly ask that you cancel your registration so others may join.
