Invest in Women Hub launched

If you are a female entrepreneur in the UK, you can now access a new resource designed to help you access the finance you need to start, grow, and scale your business. The new hub is designed as a one-stop shop that provides the resources and information you need.
For example, to try and simplify the process of finding a finance partner, the hub has a ‘Find a Finance Provider’ tool. The tool includes business incubators, accelerators, and venture capitalists within the options it provides. The Hub can also help you to connect with networks and to find a mentor.
The Rose Review published in March 2019 said that £250 billion could be added to the UK economy if women started and scaled businesses at the same rate as men. The new hub aims to help female entrepreneurs do just that.
The Hub is run by the Council for Investing in Female Entrepreneurs, a voluntary collective established to encourage and support women in business.
