A Kaufmann Foundation study showed that venture-backed companies with a woman CEO showed 35% higher ROI and 12% higher revenue growth, while using 1/3 of the capital. The prolific early stage VC firm First Round Capital found that their companies with a female founder performed 63% better than investments with all-male founding teams. Come join a discussion about ways emerging businesses can increase gender diversity to improve financial performance and increase innovation by empowering women entrepreneurs. This discussion will be led by True Wealth Ventures General Partners, Sara Brand, Ph.D., and Kerry Rupp.
