About this Event

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
  • 10:30–11:25 AM | Panel 1
  • 11:30–12:00 PM | Workshop 1
  • 1:00–1:55 PM | Pitch Competition
  • 2:00–2:55 PM | Panel 2
