INTRODUCING THE FOUNDRY

The FOUNDRY builds relationships and dealflow among women who are committed to investing in women.

We host curated private events, partner on ecosystem events, and make strategic introductions that facilitate the flow of capital to women-led funds and ventures.

Our annual luncheon is held during the Milken Global Conference, recognizing milestone achievements in investing in women. To receive an invitation to the luncheon or other private events, apply to our network.

ANNUAL LUNCHEON

The FOUNDRY is for fund managers (venture capital, private equity, impact funds), private capital, family office, capital advisory, investment banking, institutional capital, and independent investors. (Investors must be accredited and be actively seeking investment opportunties or have experience as an angel investor or LP in a fund.)

JOIN OUR EXCLUSIVE NETWORK

The FOUNDRY is on mission is to increase the flow of capital to female fund managers and founders. 

Women will control 66% of the US wealth in the next decade. How that wealth is invested can significantly impact change. Additionally, more women are stepping into family office, CIO, and allocator roles. These women need greater access to women-led investment opportunities.

Women launch businesses that solve problems that women care about (climate innovation, the future of care, women’s health) and although they receive less than 2% of venture capital, women represent 25% of the overall annual exits, and return a 35% higher ROI than their male counterparts.

Women-led funds are at the forefront of these investment opportunities, with greater deal-flow due to their networks.

WHY

Over the past five years we have produced, booked speakers*, and curated invitations to:

  • 20+ Founder / Funder Events 

  • 8 Investor Dinners
