Financing Female-Led Innovation x OBM

Are you a female founder? part of a startup team? a business owner? ecosystem enabler or support women-led innovation in the Northern Territory?

With access to capital being one of the most significant barriers and challenges for female founders, take advantage of this opportunity to step into a room of possibility, learn the funding game, and walk out with a clear plan to access the capital that will secure resources and supercharge your business growth.

Financing Female-Led Innovation brings together national leaders in venture capital, angel investing, and funding strategy to demystify what it actually takes to raise capital as a woman in business.

This 90-minute session offers practical and lived insight into the funding journey: from identifying the right capital type (grants, angel, VC) for your business, to thinking like an investor and positioning yourself as their next "must-back founder".

Designed for early-stage and scaling founders, this event is your opportunity to hear directly from those who write the cheques, and those who’ve secured them, leading to successful, sustainable business growth.

Featuring a virtual keynote from a leading Australian venture capital firm focused on women-led startups, followed by a facilitated panel of experienced investors and founders, the session will cover readiness, strategy, common pitfalls, and where to start.

Held as part of October Business Month, this event will be facilitated with a live panel in Darwin, and virtual speakers joining from across Australia. Participants will leave with a clear understanding of how to approach funding confidently, and where to go next.

See you there!
