Call for Female Founders
Many of the female founders we meet are passionate and committed to their work, but as a group we don’t often get a chance to discuss difficult issues like the fear/reality of failure, what to do when a relationship is being impacted by your entrepreneurial efforts, fundraising challenges at different levels, constructive critiques on pitches, general feedback, emotional support, and even how to evaluate when to move forward, pivot, or even stop.
Are you a female founder, or do you support female founders in your work as a professional, investor, or advisor?
We have many opportunities for those in the female founder ecosystem, including female founders, co-founders, makers, doers & dreamers who are building products, tools, applications, and services, and the venture, seed stage, and angel investors supporting them.
We originally organized around the Y Combinator-led Female Founders Conferences in San Francisco in 2015— note, this is not an official YC group!
