Equipping women with the technical knowledge, analytical skills, and industry exposure needed to thrive in the VC space, Women2Invest actively works to break down barriers that have traditionally limited female participation in this field.

- Learning to do an Investment Memo

How?
Identifying and electing a pool of participants with STEAM degrees interested in starting a career in venture investment (previous investment education or experience is not required).
Training the participants in the fundamentals of venture investment to prepare them for an entry role in the industry .
Networking with seasoned investment professionals, other participants and Women2Invest alumnae.
Matching candidates with participating funds looking to recruit candidates for a paid internship.
Why?
Female representation in Venture Capital funds across Europe remains low, particularly in senior positions—only 15% of General Partners are women, and over 80% of investment committees are exclusively male.
The demand for STEAM talent is rising, driven by a growing interest in deep-tech startups. However, graduates in these fields often lack training or exposure to the business and financial world.
Through this programme, we aim to bridge that gap by providing female STEAM talent with access to the VC ecosystem via an online bootcamp and a tailored matchmaking process with VC funds.
