Where female founders in the DMV meet to access capital, community, and connections
We put female founders at the center of the conversation, gathering the top business and tech influencers in the DMV to help women found, fund and scale their startups
We bring founders, funders, and industry influencers together to help advance female founders in the DC area. We believe that investing in women is good business, and that we can move the needle for local female founders by rallying around them.
We will launch with a pitch competition open to female founders who dream of achieving venture scale. Applicants will be judged by a committee of active local investors.
