This time last week, we were still basking in the glow (literally and figuratively) of unlock VC (previously WVC:E) annual International Women's Day event at Cooley LLP. It was an inspiring gathering of bold thinkers united around this year’s theme - 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 - exploring topics such as how we can drive real progress on diversity, even as DEI initiatives face increasing challenges. And the urgency is clear: according to the World Economic Forum, at the current pace, it will take until 2158 (roughly 5 generations) to reach full gender parity. That is not fast enough. Huge thanks to Sophie Winwood and Unlock VC for fostering such a powerful community and curating a thoughtful programme. Here’s to a year of accelerating action for gender equality - together🙌 #IWD #UnlockVC #WomeninVC

Have you heard of Dutchess Capital? It's an immersive programme focused on developing female talent by honing key financial and investment decision-making skills. We had the pleasure of joining their annual VC Masterclass again, alongside like-minded partners Invest-NL, Innovation Industries, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Curiosity VC, and Rubio Impact Ventures. Sophie joined the panel to field questions from an ambitious group of women, shedding light on the realities and misconceptions of a career in VC, and her personal journey in geting there. With only 9% of assets under management across Europe in the hands of female managers, these initiatives are vital for boosting female representation in VC. Thank you Dutchess Capital, we're already looking forward to the next one! 🙌 #DiversityinVC #WomeninVC #VCMasterclass
