13 February: VivaTech Tour London: Girls Just Wanna Have Funds

For the third consecutive year Viva Technology, happening in Paris 11-13 June, will be focusing on women in tech. And once again the VivaTech Tour is hosting meetups to investigate a mystery: Where the hell is all the money for women-led startups? Studies show that although 2019 has been a banner year for tech companies around the world, with more than €30 billion invested in Europe-based companies alone, funding for mixed-gender and women-only teams has actually been decreasing over the past four years. Yet we also know that startups founded or co-founded by women outperform those founded by men. What’s going wrong? How can we fix it?
