           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.
