About us
“Innovation should be open to anyone, anywhere.” This Plug and Play initiative aims to help level the playing field for women within Silicon Valley's innovation and entrepreneurship spheres. Through a series of events and networking opportunities, we hope to bridge the gap between women looking to get more involved in startup culture from any angle - whether it is investing in female lead companies, launching their own businesses, or simply developing new leadership roles. We hope to empower women by providing them with a network of valuable resources, and ultimately help create more opportunities for females within Silicon Valley's startup landscape.
