WeBloom is a Zurich based non-profit association making diversity and inclusion in Tech a reality. We do this by working with Tech ecosystems to help them hire and retain women, invest in women and develop products which are inclusive.
The Bold Pitch Night is a platform created to give female founders building tech-enabled sustainability solution the opportunity to increase their access to investors and key stakeholders. Through this they discover the must-haves for VC investment eligibility by getting real-time insights from women who have been on both sides of the table; increasing their chances for the next round of financing.
Currently in Europe, female founders only receive 1% of VC financing. Additionally, climate mitigation and adaptation strategies as designed today could delay the attainment of gender equity by 15 to 20 years. This is largely because women are underrepresented in the fast-growth green economy and therefore are at a disadvantage in garnering new jobs, participating in reskilling, and gaining access to funding for green tech startups.
