Meet the Top 9. Move money into the hands of women founders. Grow our economy.
The #InvestInWomenFounders Summit brings together ambitious women founders, investors, executives, entrepreneurs, and community leaders from across the United States with one clear purpose: help more women founders access the relationships, resources, customers, and capital they need to grow.
This is not another conference where you sit quietly, listen to pitches, and leave without meeting anyone.
You will spend the afternoon learning about promising companies, engaging in candid conversations, meeting people who can do business together, and discovering ways to support the 2026 Top 9 women founders. What makes this Summit different? We ditched the pitch.
Instead of delivering traditional pitch presentations, founders participate in personal, Oprah-style interviews conducted by experienced executives, exited founders, and investors.
Each conversation explores the company’s business model, traction, customers, growth strategy, leadership, competitive advantage, and funding needs. The format helps attendees understand both the business and the woman building it. You will actually meet the founders.
The Summit is designed for real interaction. Assigned-tabl
