Government supports the goal of showcasing female role models and better promoting the Invest in Women Hub. To maximise impact and ensure clarity across the ecosystem, we believe this is best achieved through amplifying industry-led initiatives. We are working closely with the Invest in Women Taskforce, Investing in Women Code, and the Invest in Women Hub to coordinate efforts, leveraging the initiatives followings and creating clear pathways for investors and female founders to access resources and opportunities. Government is working across these initiatives to amplify upcoming campaigns.
