The core aim of the taskforce is to create a bespoke funding pot of more than £250m for female-founded businesses through private capital. This will help address the wider challenges that female entrepreneurs specifically face to unlock their potential to establish and grow their enterprises. We also want to make it easy for women to invest in other women – it’s the only way we’ll break the decade-long cycle of only 2% capital investment going to all-female founder teams in the UK.
