About
How Women Invest is a San Francisco-based venture capital firm dedicated to transforming the venture capital landscape by focusing on women-led companies. Launched by Julie Castro Abrams, the firm is part of a broader movement to correct the gender imbalance in venture funding, where women-led startups historically receive a small fraction of available capital. How Women Invest targets U.S.-based B2B tech companies, particularly those with a market potential of over $500 million and a clear exit strategy within 5-7 years. The firm operates with a strong commitment to diversity, not just in the companies they invest in but also among their investors, who are primarily women from various industries. These limited partners provide not only capital but also mentorship and access to a vast professional network, helping to accelerate the growth of portfolio companies. How Women Invest typically makes early-stage investments ranging from $100,000 to $500,000, focusing on sectors like life sciences, healthcare, consumer products, and business services. Their goal is to create a more equitable venture capital ecosystem, driving higher returns by backing innovative female entrepreneurs.
