TechCXO continued its leadership in assisting female founded startups
TechCXO is dedicated to supporting female founded startups as they set a foundation for success by building best practices and infrastructure; access capital, customers and ecosystems; and accelerate revenue, product and market expansion. Startups do this through a variety of TechCXO services, including Finance & Operations support from our CFOs; Sales & Marketing support from CSOs and CMOs; and Product & Technology support from CTOs and CIOs.
According to Crunchbase News, 2018 set at an all-time high for investment dollars into female-founded tech companies. In 2018, $38.9 billion was invested in companies with a female founder, representing 17 percent of venture dollars funded globally. Investments in 2018 came close to doubling the amount recorded in 2017, a year that saw $19.8 billion invested into companies with at least one female founder.
The following is a partial list of female founded startups we’ve assisted, the industry and cities in which they operate, who the TechCXO partners are who have, or are, supporting them and any additional notes on the companies’ success.
