About us
Currently in the UK 34% of all SMEs are female led businesses in comparison to the 66% led by men. We don't believe this gap is borne out of lack of talent, capability or ambition as 63% of women find external funding to be a barrier for growing and scaling their own business. More than 35% of women seeking funding have reported encountering gender bias from financiers resulting in more female start ups being funded by savings and credit cards whilst men are more likely to receive external funding. Our aim at Female Founder Finance is provide female entrepreneurs access to the first wholly female circle of commercial and investment financiers in the UK. and moving that dial from 34% to 50%.

Female Founder Finance is actively supporting women-led businesses by fostering collaboration and community. We’ve created women-only networking groups where female founders can empower and support each other. These groups aren’t just about connections—they generate real business growth. For example, two interior design businesses met at one of our events, discovered complementary opportunities, and are now collaborating on projects. Interested in joining one of our networking events? You can sign up here: https://lnkd.in/eNTgGVM5 #UKExportFinance #TradeFinanceConference #FemaleFounderFinance #WomenInBusiness #NetworkingForGrowth

Last week, Roxanne highlighted the vast funding options available to businesses - with over 300 bank and non-bank lenders offering support. For many businesses, maintaining their existing banking relationships is key. That’s why we focus on plug-and-play solutions like supply chain finance, allowing businesses to access the funding they need without switching banks unnecessarily. 💡 The right finance solution should work for your business, not the other way around! #UKExportFinance #TradeFinanceConference #FemaleFounderFinance #BusinessFunding #WomenInBusiness

At last week’s UK Export Finance Trade Finance Conference, Roxanne explored the impact of AI on business finance and the importance of human expertise. While AI is transforming industries, finance requires a personal touch. Every business is unique, with its own challenges and circumstances. That’s why having a dedicated expert, like a UKEF regional manager, available to provide tailored support is invaluable. AI can streamline processes, but when it comes to navigating funding and scaling internationally, real human guidance is irreplaceable. 💬 What are your thoughts on AI in business finance? Let’s discuss! #UKExportFinance #TradeFinanceConference #FemaleFounderFinance #AIInFinance #WomenInBusiness

At last week’s UK Export Finance Trade Finance Conference, Roxanne joined the panel to discuss the biggest challenges facing UK businesses today. For female-owned businesses, many operate in the micro turnover space (under £5M annually) and need tailored financial support to scale. That’s why our partnership with UK Export Finance is so important - by raising awareness of funding opportunities, we help female founders break through barriers and access global markets. 📢 Were you at the conference? What are your thoughts on funding challenges for female founders? Let’s discuss! #UKExportFinance #TradeFinanceConference #FemaleFounderFinance #WomenInBusiness
