“Last year, we announced our new mission to catalyze USD1B funding for startups coming through She Loves Tech by 2030.” says Rhea See, co-founder of She Loves Tech. This year, fundraising will be front and centre.
Startups can expect increased funding opportunities with more 1:1 facetime with leading VCs, mentoring hours, and direct cash and investment prizes of up to US$50,000 throughout the series.
