Fundraising Support

LEARN HOW TO RAISE
VALUES-ALIGNED SEED CAPITAL

We’ve helped purpose-driven companies raise $18+million to date, with around 40% raised by female-led businesses.

We’re proud of our impact entrepreneurs’ fundraising success.

Hear what they have to say

Being part of the funding roundtable with other female founders and impact leaders, was amazing. I was not only able to learn the skills I needed to raise capital, but also had the support of facilitators who knew exactly what I would be faced with. The support, friendship and straight talk was invaluable as we raised. And we did, successfully!

This program provided the opportunity to be collaborative in investment strategies with other founders who are at the same stage of business development. It makes you focus on the areas of raising capital that typically get overlooked when trying to navigate the investment maze

What is a Funding Roundtable?

A new approach to raising capital that’s centered around community learning.

Our Funding Roundtables

Raising capital from investors has always been viewed as a mysterious and an unknown process; let us unlock that process and bring clarity to it.

Every day in raising your round is different. Why? Every business, every investor, and every conversation is different. This is why we’ve found that roundtables are the best way to support companies that are actively raising capital.

Each roundtable has up to 10 companies that are at similar stages in their fundraising journeys. Supported by an experienced facilitator, the group collaboratively addresses common fundraising challenges and questions like:

What if I don’t have a lead investor?
How do I communicate my business and social impact to an investor?
How do I get all the investors to agree to the same terms?
What is the difference between a priced round and convertible debt?
