Increase the number!

Women are still highly underrepresented in the startup sector with currently only around 20% female (co-)founders. This is a societal and systemic issue for gender equality, as well as a missed opportunity for the economy. With our project, we aim to tackle this problem and alter the narrative about women entrepreneurs in Switzerland. In the end, we want to significantly increase the number of female founders in Switzerland!
