Health Tech Angel Investment - Founder and Funder Perspectives
Event Information
About this Event
Fortune Magazine reports that only 2% of Venture Capital funding goes to female founders. We're calling all health tech entrepreneurs and aspiring angels to join us and HERmesa for a crash course in health tech investment. You'll learn all about investments from experienced investors and innovative health tech start ups (watching their pitches and seeing live feedback), with the opportunity to observe and contribute!
We are running this event in partnership with HERmesa, a progressive syndicate specifically devoted to increasing the number of women angels and to supporting women (co)founded start-ups. HERmesa does things differently by providing interested members with a unique “learn by doing” approach to angel investing.
During the event, 3 exciting health tech start-ups will get the opportunity to pitch for investment from HERmesa and other investors. Interested in pitching? Drop us a line on info@healthtechhive.com. Our team can support you with developing your pitch if it's your first time!
