About this Event
Join us for The Startup Ladies 3rd annual #InvestInWomenFounders 2024 Summit
The Startup Ladies third annual #InvestInWomenFounders 2024 Summit is a half day celebration and convening of founders, funders, and corporate executives with the goal of helping women founders secure investment to grow. We are so excited that the Delta Faucet Company is once again our title sponsor and will be hosting the event in their beautiful space on Thursday, December 5, 2024 from noon-6pm ET at their HQ in Indianapolis, Indiana.
We ditched the pitch!
Instead of pitches, we will pair each founder with a seasoned entrepreneur or senior executive from a major company. These proven entrepreneurs/execs will interview the founder (think Oprah style interview). Interviewers will ask questions allowing founders to cover the content in their decks. These conversations will be more personal, relaxed, and hopefully fun!
It will be the interviewer's job to champion the founder before, during, and after the event. Interviewers will spark conversation with the audience and ask attendees how they can help founders: secure investment, and connect to prospective investors, and clients.
YOU'RE INVITED!
The Startup Ladies Board, Ambassadors, and staff would like to invite you to join us at this very special event. Your ticket gives you access to a buffet lunch, opportunity to meet with all of the Top 9 at their display tables, entrance to all of the breakout sessions, and a cocktail hour.

Last year, $170 billion was invested in to US startups and women-owned startups received a whopping 2% of that funding. We can no longer expect women to build companies with less money than their male counterparts. Women CEOs need money to pay themselves, full-time staff, and outsourced professional services. —> The faster we move the money - the faster we create NEW jobs in our community!
Investors - Plan to be there!
Most of our Investor Members are a combination of professional folks and retirees who are NOT professional investors. They have the financial capacity to invest a minimum of $5,000/year. They want to support women founders. They are comfortable investing in ideas, research, and the very early stage of startups so women founders can grow their companies.

Entrepreneurs - Get ready to network!
Those who are noodling on an idea for a business, founders who are just starting up, entrepreneurs who are stuck, and business owners who are ready to scale or already scaling should plan to be there. You will meet entrepreneurial peers who are a few steps ahead of you. You will meet prospective investors, customers, mentors, and advisors. You will see what several investor-ready founders look and act like in person. And you'll have a lot of fun!
