Did you know that only 14% of Angel investors in the UK are women, and less than 2% of VC funding goes to female entrepreneurs? The numbers become abysmal the digger you deep, with less than 0.02% of VC funding reaching black women entrepreneurs. Industry-led and government-backed, the Invest in Women Taskforce is dedicated to creating a £250m funding pot for female entrepreneurs looking to start – and scale – their businesses. Very exciting to be working on this with my colleagues at MHP Group #investinwomen #womeninbusiness #entrepreneurs

Today, we celebrate women. And it's no secret that finance is still today a male dominated industry. 46% of employees are women, but only 15% hold executive positions. But from Christine Lagarde, President of the ECB, to Adena Friedman, Chair and CEO of Nasdaq, and many others, let's celebrate millions of incredible women working in finance shaping the future of our world, and, most importantly, to the millions to come! #womenday #womeninbusiness #womeninfinance #womeninfintech #women #finance

I think it shows how much I loved the panel discussion yesterday! The topic of women, entrepreneurship, wealth and investing is so important. My co-panelists, Claudia Pinto , @Deept Chandak and Carla Nemr were inspiring, insightful and very focused on female empowerment 🙌 Thank you Lama El Kouba and Abdallah Harfouch for inviting me onstage with such amazing women. Here we discuss why men and women tend to behave differently when investing. Let me know if you agree in the comments 👇 #womenandmoney #moneycoach #womenandinvesting

How Lack of Capital Stifles Dreams: The Irma Sanchez Story & #investmentcrowdfunding's Power to Bridge the Gap Irma Sanchez, this powerful video resonated deeply and was enhanced by your personal story. Sharing the struggles of marginalized communities in accessing capital was truly eye-opening. Your experience reflects a systemic issue holding back our nation's entrepreneurial spirit. The lack of capital for marginalized communities isn't just their pain; it stifles innovation and economic growth for the entire US economy. It limits job creation, wealth generation, and the diversity of products and services reaching the market. But there's hope! #investmentcrowdfunding democratizes access to capital for these entrepreneurs, fostering job growth, and bringing diverse ideas to life. Numerous reports highlight the missed opportunities due to systemic capital barriers, impacting job growth, economic prosperity, and wealth creation across the US. Your courage to speak up and tackle this issue head-on is inspiring. Partnering with the Latin American Association to launch an #investmentcrowdfunding accelerator for Latina founders like yourself expands opportunities and paves the way for a more inclusive, thriving economy. Let's join forces to break down these barriers and unleash the full potential of all #entrepreneurs. #smallbusiness #startup #diversity #inclusion #innovation #economy #jobcreation #wealthcreation #investing #crowdfunding #Latinafounders #opportunity #community
