Getting Equity in Equity

  • Summary

  • Women run only one in five of America’s companies, and women-led startups received only two percent of venture capital spending in 2020. Why is it so hard for women to obtain VC funding for their businesses? Hosts Gina Brillon and Kimberly Brooks dive into the complex, intersectional issues at play and how some states do a much better job than others in creating an environment for women-owned businesses to thrive. But there are lessons to be learned from the places where women-led businesses are booming — and they can provide a blueprint for other states.
