Against the odds - raising as a female emerging tech founder

Join us live from Slush 2023, Europe's largest startup conference! Emerging technologies like AI and blockchain have transformed industries and revolutionised the way we operate. However, women remain significantly underrepresented in the startup ecosystem. In 2022, 77% of VC investments in AI startups went to male-only founded companies. A recent PwC report highlighted the unique challenges faced by female founders when fundraising.

Our host, Jenni Chance, PwC report author will discuss the challenges facing female founders in AI and practical ways to overcome them.She will be speaking to Alex Ruhl, PwC's Head of Immersive and Spatial Technologies and Founder of Cats are not Peas, Esther O’Callaghan, Founder of Hundo and Georgina Kyriakoudes, Founder and CEO of Aria Health.
