The Whole Point
A UK-wide, government aligned initiative to increase funding to women-led businesses
In the UK, only 2% of funding goes to women-led businesses.
More than half of that never leaves London.
“We’re uncovering and super charging latent, high growth women led businesses in the regions by increasing their access to capital.”
“Five Regional Boards in five major UK cities will work to create ultra connected ecosystems, armed with local data to highlight the benefits of backing women. Sharing knowledge, networks and the confidence that only the creation of communities can bring. Rapidly profiling and supporting women aspiring to scale and grow their businesses, in practical ways.”
