Transforming the VC landscape

Putting more capital in the hands of women yields:

  • Women-led funds outperform all-male funds by an average of 50 basis points.
  • Funds with women Partners demonstrate a 1.5% higher annual fund return.

  • Women VCs Invest in up to 2x more Female Founders.

  • A company with a female founder and a female executive will hire 6x more women.

  • Our goal is to scale and amplify this cycle to ultimately change the look of the room.
