Do you feel like you\u2019re not connecting when you speak with investors? In your mind, you\u2019ve delivered a strong pitch, you\u2019ve answered all their questions, and yet the conversation doesn\u2019t go anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you feel this way, you\u2019re not alone. Research shows that investors ask women different questions than men, and those questions don\u2019t lead to investment. As a result, women get less than 2% of VC funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WeBC is working to help more women overcome this barrier to equity financing, through our Investor Speak<\/a>\u2122 program, which teaches women how to lead the conversation. Participants practice on their own time for 15 minutes a day, then join weekly meetups with the group to receive group support on their venture capital journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Join us for a free info session to hear about the Investor Speak\u2122 Program and learn:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Facilitators:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks to funding from the Government of Canada\u2019s Women Entrepreneurship Strategy, full grants are available to cover the $2,900 Investor Speak\u2122 program cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
