Oh yes, the moneymaker! Since the inception of The Next Women Crowd Fund back in 2014 – the only Dutch fund committed to solely investing in women-led companies – one of the USP’s of The Next Women has been our opportunity to directly invest in our community. Even though the Fund has made its last investment in 2019, we haven’t stopped with our mission to close the funding gap. We activate our network of angels for all interesting opportunities put forward by our members, we organize quarterly Funding Mornings where you get to pitch in front of a live investor panel and we are one of the co-founders of the Borski Fund – the Venture Capital fund that invests in diverse teams.
