Recent indicators show that women are increasingly eager to put their money to work outside of traditional portfolio offerings. For instance, women accounted for 31.2% of angel investors in the first two quarters of 2022, a slight increase from 30.3% in the same period in 2021, according to a report by Jeffrey E.

It doesn't depend on the market cycle and innovation is always happening, she added.
