As of 2023, female founders received less than 3% of VC funding. One of the key solutions provided for this issue is to have more female investors at the table. However, in Australia, female representation at the senior level for private equity and VCs makes up only 12%. The numbers are only slightly better for angel investors, with women making up 17% in Australia. These numbers NEED to change. With the support of the Melbourne Climate Network, we are putting on an event to address this with a focus on the climate tech sector.

Join us for a very important panel discussion focussing on how to get more women into the investment field and how to create greater representation. Our amazing panel of women include:

Megan Fisher - CEO & Director at EnergyLab (Moderator)
Roo Harris - General Partner at Scale Investors
Joanna Lee - Investment Associate at Giant Leap
Emma Jenkin - Partner at Kilara Capital
Emma Coath - Angel Investor and Chair at Impact Club

Agenda for the evening:

5:30 pm - 6:30 pm Light snacks and networking
6:30 pm - 7:30 pm Panel discussion
7:30 pm - 8: 30 pm Further networking over drinks

The event location will be confirmed closer to the date, but it will be hosted in the Melbourne CBD. We look forward to seeing you on the night :)
