Leaders Creating Change.
We want to ensure that all women capital movers are represented on investment teams and receive backing as managers. This is key to catalyzing innovative investments and supporting robust growth. Yet, a significant gap exists for women to access capital at all levels.
We want to change this.
Who We Are
We Are A Collective of Female Capital Movers Creating a Movement of Change.
Female capital movers are finding the best investments today that will grow the economies of emerging markets tomorrow.
Advancing Women in Investing (AWI) is a collaborative network of first-time and emerging female managers focused on frontier and emerging markets who support each other to share learnings, co-invest and raise capital. Our long-term goal is to create a movement of change to democratize access to funding and opportunity for emerging female capital movers.
