XpoNorth 2022 | Mint Ventures Making Angel Investment More Accessible for Women Led Businesses

Starting and growing your own business is hard for any entrepreneur. It’s a rollercoaster journey of massive highs and lows and many years of work without any guaranteed income or success at the end.

Seeking external investment is one route which can support growth both through funding, connections and bringing in expertise and coaching.

Research has shown that for women entrepreneurs there are additional challenges through unconscious bias, gender-based discrimination, societal pressures, access to networks, and in particular access to finance.

Join Gillian Fleming, CEO of Mint Ventures, a women led angel investment group supporting diverse teams in the under represented sectors including creative businesses in Scotland, as she gives an introductory session on what is involved in angel investing for start-up businesses, business owners and future entrepreneurs.
