What’s the Program:
Invest In Women x Pittsburgh is an initiative for underrepresented entrepreneurs in the Pittsburgh area, designed to support women-led technology companies tackling real-world problems. Chloe Capital, Ascender and the Richard King Mellon Foundation are partnering to create a collaborative and inclusive fundraising experience through a series of online events leading up to a 48-hour in-person program in Pittsburgh this Spring. Five women with companies located in, or willing to relocate to, Allegheny or Westmoreland counties will be selected to pitch Chloe Capital and a team of active investors at a public Founder Showcase on April 27, 2022. On average, participants in a Chloe Capital program each go on to raise $2,000,000 within a year, catalyzed by visibility and introductions to the firm’s world-wide network.
