We don’t need another task force to tell us women entrepreneurs need better access to capital. Not another study. Not another debate. Investors: Change your view, check your biases and take the smart risk. #IWW2021

[Arlene Dickinson @ArleneDickinson]

Thank you to @Invest_Ottawa for having me speak this morning. The time is now. We must do a better job of supporting and investing in Canadian womxn entrepreneurs and make it a priority to undo the bias that exists in the investment community. #IWD2021

"I think that the womxn that are typically investing are trailblazers themselves and have been successful entrepreneurs in many cases and understand some of the barriers and challenges that are unique to womxn founders." - Heather Ward

Really good discussion on raising money as a founder, getting started as an investor with @HUBHeather @AudreyLBond @DebbieLWLaw @sandranng and @Julia_Elvidge at the #IWW2021 Angel Breakfast

[Will Stockdale @WillStockd]

A takeaway from the @Invest_Ottawa and @CapitalAngels womxn angel investor breakfast on the challenges of raising:

Even @ArleneDickinson struggled to raise her first fund.

So much work to be done.

But great to hear founders @HUBHeather and @AudreyLBond showing the way.

[Audrey Bond @AudreyLBond]

Thank you @ArleneDickinson @JenFrancis261 @Julia_Elvidge @HUBHeather @DebbieLWLaw @sandranng for a fantastic morning discussion on the need for supporting investment in female founders and encouraging others to join as Angels.
