Calling all aspiring female investors! What myths might you believe in when it comes to investing in startups and growth companies? Would it be time to demystify the investment process -both for founders and investors? 🔥 If you are a seasoned investor and business angel, you may take the process for granted, but in order to invite more women into the space of startup investments, we may need to take a closer and more critical look at both motivations and barriers to invest. One such barrier is simply lack of knowledge and experience. At Shevestments, we believe that what you don’t yet know, you can learn, and we are here to make the investment journey with you. 👉 Investing in startups and unlisted growth companies is much more than offering them your capital, as much as that is essential to their growth. 👉 It’s about providing them value with your experience, your expertise, your know-how, and your network. It’s also an amazing way to make an impact, and with the growing number of women who are able to personally manage and direct their funds, we believe this is a pivotal moment for female investors to come together and make a difference while diversifying their investments. Change happens when women get together and root for each other. Each one teach one. Our goal at Shevestments is to educate a growing number of aspiring female investors to drive change and create an impact. 🌍 💎 Are you an experienced investor?

Startup Founder and CEO of vPurpose, Partner, Mentor, | Non-profit founder, Food Rescue, Investor, Serial Entrepreneur, Board Member and Advisor for Non-profits and Small Businesses.
From what I have observed and learned, many VC firms prioritize achieving very high returns on investment right from the beginning. These firms are often led by male partners, making it difficult for women entrepreneurs to receive the support and opportunities they deserve to achieve their impact goals. By shifting the focus to prioritizing impact, more entrepreneurs, including women, will have the chance to thrive and make a difference and I believe in this mantra with my vPurpose venture. I admire women fund managers like 🌎 Gillian Muessig who invest their time and energy to mentor and support women entrepreneurs. #femalefounder #womenentrapreneurs #startup #newstartup #purposemindset #impactfirst #giveherachance #fundwomen #WomenInBusiness #VentureCapital #FemaleFounders #SupportWomen #Entrepreneurship
Why Aren’t More Women Founders Going After Venture Capital? Only 25% of women entrepreneurs are seeking venture capital funding, with many opting to bootstrap and self-fund their businesses instead. This highlights a significant issue in the entrepreneurial landscape: the barriers that women face in accessing external funding. From gender biases to lack of network connections, the challenges are real and daunting. Let's discuss: What are the main obstacles preventing women from pursuing venture capital? How can we support and encourage more women founders to seek the funding they need? Share your experiences and insights on navigating the funding landscape as a woman entrepreneur. The documentary “Show Her The Money” , produced by Catherine Gray really did a fantastic job at highlighting this issue and encouraging women to pursue funding. Pocket Sun shares her incredible story of creating her own fund supporting women in business, showing us anything is possible. It showcases the stories of female founders overcoming these barriers and finding success with the support of angel investors. This film is a must-watch for understanding the complexities of venture capital and the importance of financial support for women entrepreneurs. It's time to bridge the gap and create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all women in business. Together, we can make a difference! #WomenInBusiness #VentureCapital #FemaleFounders #SupportWomen #Entrepreneurship💬 Join the conversation and let's drive change!

Partnering with Fund F by Female Founders, we're addressing the underrepresentation of women in tech. Despite progress, only 15% of tech startup founders are female, and less than 9% of venture capitalists are women in 2023—a gap we're determined to close. Through Fund F, we support women-led startups, ensuring they have the tools and opportunities to succeed. Join us in this mission. Share your stories and let’s drive change together. 🌟 #WomenInTech #startupgrowth
