In Germany, only about 15% of startups are initiated by women. Sadly, the figure has been stagnant for years. Additionally, female-led startups receive significantly less Venture Capital than those owned by men. This is a shame, considering that data shows that startups founded by women achieve higher revenues and are therefore a more attractive investment.
We at Wayra Germany use our resources and influence to bring more diversity to the startup world by explicitly supporting female entrepreneurship in multiple ways. For example,
- Diversity as a key performance indicator
- Mentorship for female entrepreneurs
- Free data training opportunities
Check out the top 10 female-led startups in Germany and if you are interested in reading more about how we empower diversity, check out our blog.
