Berkeley Female Founders and Funders Summit

In 2024, approximately 2% of venture capital went to female-only founded companies and, in the United States, women make up only about 11% of investing partners at VC firms. Female Founders & Funders at Berkeley are actively looking to change this.

We invite you to our second annual Female Founders & Funders Summit — Berkeley’s flagship gathering for founders, funders, and operators who are building a more inclusive future in tech and venture. Expect real talk, practical insights, and a community that’s working together to help more women win.

Location: Spieker Forum, UC Berkeley Haas School of Business

• 9:30–10:25 AM | Opening Keynote
