What does it take to get women-led companies funded and scaled?
During UNGA and Climate Week, we put that question on the table together with Prosus, looking at the gap between how many women are building companies and how few are getting funded to scale them.
Prajna Khanna, Chief Sustainability Officer at Prosus, shared findings from the Tech FoundHER Challenge, then a panel of founders, investors and operators got candid about the challenges and the opportunities ahead.
The biggest takeaway of the night: role models make the next generation possible.
It was inspiring to see how everyone in that room is already paying it forward, mentoring the next founder, backing the next deal, and opening the next door.
