💡 Female Voices in Venture Capital 💡 This week, we’re exploring the challenges and progress of female founders in the venture capital space. 🌟 While women’s presence in entrepreneurship continues to grow, startups founded by women still receive only a fraction of VC funding. Biases, stereotypes, and network exclusivity create significant barriers, often forcing female founders to bootstrap their way forward. It’s time to address this disconnect and work towards a more inclusive and equitable startup ecosystem. 📩 Read the full feature here: https://lnkd.in/dbK3Zjdc #VentureCapital #FemaleFounders #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #WomenInBusiness
