Connecting with our City Coordinator Tessa de Flines
|
'I wish I had had the knowledge I have now when I was starting my career about the internal barriers and unconscious biases that women face. I really only became aware of these when I read Lean In 8 years ago. If we as Female Ventures can create more awareness on these topics for women at a younger age and empower them to change, I think it can greatly help them in their careers. ' For the full interview read more here.

We welcome all ages from just entering the labour market to reaching the horizon of your working life. Why is this so important ? Read more here in the article of Elizabeth Bennet.

Considering a co-founder position ?
|
Quite some questions for support came to our mentors at Female Ventures on the topic of becoming a co-founder or late founder, joining an existing startup or scaleup. What can I expect from such a role, how do I get to know founders who are looking for a cofounder ?
