According to the UK Business Angels Association (UKBAA)\, over 60% of scale-ups have received angel investment to support their early growth. \nHowever\, The Rose Review into Female Entrepreneurship has identified that there is still a market bias against female entrepreneurs who face considerable challenges\, with access to finance being the number one barrier. The UKBAA found that a key part of the solution is growing the number of angel investors supported by data which shows female investors make between 30-50% of their investment in female founders. \nThe FREE to attend Women Angels of the North Conference delivered by Fund Her North\, Innovate UK\, UKBAA and the Innovation SuperNetwork aims to unlock the power of women as angel investors and amplify the national Women Backing Women campaign. \nJoin leading women in the investment landscape to explore how angel investing works and the impact of having more women investors in the North. This event seeks to break down the barriers of angel investing by dispelling myths and highlighting the benefits of this asset class. \nYou will hear from leading UK private and angel investors\, leading economists\, investment analysts\, fund managers and policy makers. As an attendee you will gain insight on future trends\, join the discussion on how we can all drive diversity across the investment landscape\, as well as meet other investors and like-minded people. In addition you will hear directly from female entrepreneurs that have been supported by The Women Angels of the North syndicate\, on the need for more women angel investors and improving the gender balance in the early stage ecosystem in the UK. \nThis event will provide the perfect setting for hearing from experienced women angel investors\, investment and wealth experts on how to navigate the world of angel investing and how you can become a part of the success of early stage business growth. \n\n\nAbout Fund Her North: \nFund Her North is a Northern-based\, volunteer collective of over 28 women (in VC’s\, funding organisations and angel groups)\, with a combined investment power of over £650 million. Each of the members of the Fund Her North collective has already made a lasting effect on female entrepreneurs in the North\, with a combined investment track record of over £160 million invested in female-led\, start-up businesses. \nFund Her North exists to give northern\, female entrepreneurs equal access to funding to help them successfully scale their businesses.

Successfully achieving these objectives will come about faster by means of a collaborative effort\, rather than a disjointed\, fractured approach. \nAs a result\, NorthInvest\, the UKBAA and the British Business Bank will be hosting 3 large-scale conferences this year in Leeds\, Manchester and Newcastle. These events are being held in order to discuss how we can co-create a connected eco-system of angel investors and angel groups across the regions to support more SME’s to leverage funding\, inspire more people to take up angel investing as well as upskill the current crop of angel investors across the Northern Powerhouse. \nOn the 15th June\, NorthInvest will be continuing this series in Manchester\, to discuss how investors and stakeholders of the North can come together to unlock investment power in the region. We’ll hear from a number of high-profile speakers from the tech and investment sectors who will guide and inspire. \nDon’t miss out on this free event – sign up now! \nAgenda TBA URL:https://northinvest.co.uk/event/northern-angel-summit-manchester/ LOCATION:Circle Square Oxford Road Manchester ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northinvest.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Manchester-Northern-Angel-Summit-Event-Image-Presentation-169.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230703T083000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230703T110000 DTSTAMP:20260403T185353 CREATED:20230614T152814Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230614T152814Z UID:4689-1688373000-1688382000@northinvest.co.uk SUMMARY:Yorkshire Sustainability Week DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with Yorkshire Sustainability Week we are holding a ‘Pitch it Green’ in-person event.
