Why AtVenture Platform?
We’re not another network.
We’re a platform for action.
-
Only 10% of angel investors are women.
-
Less than 2% of venture funding goes to women.
​
AtVenture Platform exists to change that by activating more women, underrepresented individuals, and allies to confidently invest in diverse founders. From training to pitch events to co-investment, we deliver the infrastructure this ecosystem has been missing.​​
