Women's Venture Challenge 2026

Women's Venture Challenge 2026

Founder Central by Sweater, 2000 Central Ave #100, Boulder, CO, US

Discover the Future of Tech at New Tech Colorado

Female startup founders face a severe, persistent funding gap, with all-female teams receiving only about 2% of total global venture capital, a figure that has barely moved in over a decade, despite often outperforming their peers in revenue generated per dollar invested.

Get ready to be inspired by the women inventors and entrepreneurs in our ecosystem. Tonight is about shining a spotlight (and some prize money) on these worthy startups. And as usual, check out the "New to Boulder" event just before, details below.

This Month's Presenters are the 6 finalists of the Women’s Venture Challenge!

Why You Should Be There:

  • Join our celebration of female entrepreneurship in Colorado
  • Network with investors and innovators pushing the boundaries of technology
  • Enjoy food and beverages from local women-owned purveyors
