☆ Women-led venture capital funds are helping drive increase in funding for women-owned startups
  + stars: | 2024-03-05 | by ( Stephanie Dhue Sharon Epperson | Stephanie Dhue | Stephanie-Dhue | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Despite a challenging fundraising environment, women-led venture capital funds made gains in 2023. According to research by Venture Capital Journal, women-led funds' share of total fundraising increased to about 3% of the $107 billion raised last year by venture funds worldwide, up from less than 2% of the 2022 total. While it's a small fraction of the total pool, venture capital funding in the U.S. for companies founded by women has been trending up in recent years. The upswing has had some help from the creation of incubators for women founders, more new companies founded by women and more venture capital funds focused on underrepresented founders. Portfolia creates and manages about 16 venture funds designed for individual investors who want to invest in a portfolio of mostly women-led startups and want to learn more about venture investing.

Abortion telemedicine startup Hey Jane raised $6.1 million in funding. Reproductive health startups are receiving more attention from VCs following the fall of Roe v. Wade. The fall of Roe v. Wade earlier this year has caused some states to restrict access to abortions and has thrown reproductive rights into the spotlight. Hey Jane raised $6.1 million in Series A funding from female-led Ulu Ventures, The Helm, Amboy Street, Portfolia, and G9. Moving forward, a key area of focus for Hey Jane will be increasing awareness of medication abortion to the general public, as well as access.
