☕ Women Backing Women: LA Tech Week Edition

Capital, Conviction, and the Future of Female-Focused Investing

The data is clear, but the funding gap remains wide. True change doesn't come from asking for a seat at the table—it comes from building our own.

Following a packed, high-demand launch in Palo Alto and our expansion to SF, we are bringing our high-impact event series down the coast for LA Tech Week.

Join Sisters Female Founders Initiative on October 12 for an exclusive morning breakfast gathering curated for female founders, angel investors, venture capitalists, and Limited Partners (LPs).
