FEMSTART helps female founders

12 mei 2021

Of all the Dutch businesses that received an investment since 2008, only 0.8% consisted of just women and 4.9% were mixed teams. There is a tremendous gap in the world of funding, and it's time to close it.

FEMSTART helps female founders

FEM-START facilitates and brings together education, research, mentorship, and a community with the aim of bridging the funding gap for female entrepreneurs. It offers online courses that cover all elements of various types of financing. The gamification platform offers an interactive and immersive learning experience by combining educational content with videos, quizzes, and interactive question-and-answer sessions.


Funding gap

The platform also helps in preparing investment applications for venture capital organizations. FEM-START was founded by Simone van Bijsterveldt, Sandra van der Pal, Ellen Tacoma, and Marian Spier. The mission of FEM-START is to educate more than 100,000 women in the field of fundraising and ultimately close the funding gap.
