Plexiglass deep tech accelerator for women startups

Plexiglass & Fin4Fem

   

Helping to level the playing field for female tech founders

Overview

Female founders experience unique and discriminatory hurdles when raising money to start and scale their companies. In addition, their businesses can be overlooked, misunderstood and undervalued in STEM sectors. Plexiglass and Fin4Fem were structured programmes of workshops, mentoring, client & angel introductions and pitching practice, all aiming to shine a light on brilliant founders and bring the resources around them to accelerate their success.
