Moderated by Rebecca Minkoff, Co-founder, Female Founders Collective

As the startup landscape evolves, so do the unwritten rules that shape who gets funded and who gets overlooked. Female founders continue to build some of the most efficient, high -performing companies around the world, yet persistent gaps in access to capital mean they’re often scaling with fewer resources despite stronger results. This conversation unpacks the dynamics behind that disconnect and highlights the new strategies women are using to secure traction, capital, and long-term momentum in a system still catching up to their potential. Join us for a candid discussion on how female founders are navigating entrenched disparities while still building high-impact, resilient businesses.
