AIN Set up the New Platform to Promote Female Entrepreneurship and Investment
The Angel Investment Network (AIN), a 14-year old platform
linking Angel investors to startups, is made up of about 17,000
Angel investors, but less than 10% of them are women. Now, AIN
has set up a new platform specifically to connect female founders
and investors to address the underrepresentation of women in
the investor and founder ranks. The new platform has the aptly
named "Female Founders". It will showcase women-led startups
and help female founders seek funding and guidance from female
investors.
AIN said the "Female Founders" platform is only the first step
in their mission to increase the representation of women in the
industry through community events, meet-and-tell events, and digital networks.
The UK Government Set up the "Women Innovation Award"
Innovate UK, the government's innovation agency, launched its "Women in Innovation" campaign since 2016. The aim is to encourage
innovation among female leaders, help women realize their business ambitions and promote innovation diversity. As part of the
campaign, Innovate UK set up women's innovation awards. The award provides £50,000 in commercial funding and a customized
package of support to help the winning company grow its business and ultimately drive the UK economy.
This year, nine of the most innovative British companies led by women won the award. The winners are tackling some of society's biggest
challenges set out in the government's modern Industry Strategy, including artificial intelligence (AI) and the future of mobility. The
women's innovation awards are designed to address one of the main barriers to diversity in innovation - the lack of female role models.
By acknowledging their achievements, we ensure that the nine new winners will inspire the next generation of female creators.
