Bridging the Gap: Tackling the Funding Challenges Faced by Women and Nonbinary Entrepreneurs
In the U.S., women-owned businesses contribute $1.9 trillion to the economy, yet face significant hurdles when it comes to funding. With only 3% of VC funding going to women-owned start-ups and even less for women of color, many female and nonbinary entrepreneurs are left relying on personal savings to grow their businesses. The Sphere’s Speed Dating ‘For the Money’ event aims to help bridge this gap by connecting entrepreneurs with financial partners and resources.
