SWIM Push for Parity 2026: Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital Panel

Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital: Closing the Gender Gap in Funding

Join us for a lunchtime panel at MIT Sloan featuring women founders and venture capital investors as they share their experiences navigating the fundraising landscape and building more inclusive startup ecosystems. With women-led startups receiving less than 5% of venture funding, this conversation will explore barriers to capital access, strategies for success, and how entrepreneurs and investors alike can help change the status quo. Attendees will gain practical insights into raising capital, supporting underrepresented founders, and advocating for a more equitable venture ecosystem.

Panelists:
Azin Radsan van Alebeek - Emmeline Ventures
Adela Jamal - Milemark Capital
Annie Weissbach - Echo Health Ventures
Lipika Kapoor - NABU Sciences

In partnership with the Martin Trust Center and Venture Capital and Private Equity Club.
