Women Investing in Change

Norrsken House Brussels | Feb 5 | 17:00-20:00

Shaping capital flows has a major impact on the economy and ultimately, what the world of tomorrow will look like. That’s why diversity in the rooms where investment decisions are being made is so important.

Because diversity is about diversity of thought, approaches and strategies. It means fresh and innovative perspectives, improved risk management and a broader sense of what is worth investing in.

Yet, today, women are still underrepresented in investing, with only 15% of venture investment managing partners being female.

Increasing the visibility of women investors is a powerful way of inspiring the next generation. We need spaces, communities and networks to shine a light on these stories. That’s why we’re partnering with Supernovas – an EIT Community championing diversity & innovation in investment – on 5 February.

Join us for a powerful evening of stories from female investors who are leading the way.
