JV Network
A joint venture to create a private market that is also for women.
Building a third space empowering female investors and entrepreneurs
Our pillars
1Connect informally
We aim to create a true community of female entrepreneurs, women in finance, and friends. A safe space to meet others, build relationships, discover opportunities.
2Learn & share
Apart from informal social gatherings, we'll also host knowledge-sharing events to not only learn from each other, but also external guests.
3Support & invest
We want to see more female founders, more female investors. So we're taking action - we're creating an advisory panel and investment committee to support and invest in female-led businesses.
For Whom?
For anyone who believes in equal opportunity
For Female Investors
looking for an opportunity to share knowledge, invest and connect.
Meet, invest behind and support other women. This is an opportunity to broaden your network on the investing and entrepreneurship side, gain new skills and deploy capital together.
For Female Entrepreneurs
looking for an opportunity to grow, learn and connect.
Being a founder can often be a tough solitary journey, especially challenging when it comes to fundraising. You don't have to go at it alone - join us to meet investors and other entrepreneurs, share stories and grow together.
