what if a more robust set of
gender lens vehicles were
offered to investors – what
could that look like
What If?
an investment vehicle focused on maternal health – affordable technologies, mobile education and monitoring.
What if?A “peer-allocated capital” model with a gender lens – and virtual– giving women the room to live up to their potential outside of the traditional pitch scenario, while maintaining work-life balance across diverse geographies
What if?An investment vehicle focused on ending the trafficking of women and girls – on changing incentives throughout the supply chain with credit card companies, the hospitality industry, or innovative reporting technologies
we use a gender lens as a
viewfinder for opportunity –
social, financial, or both
