Takeaways from 361 Firm’s Future is Female event:

“Female-founded companies performed 63% better than all-male founding teams (see reference links on the App); yet in 2020, female-founded companies received <3% of all US VC funding.
All trends projected to continue meaning the future labor force will be increasingly female
Women’s labor force participation has stalled; we have a structural flaw in the system of work that causes women to "step back" or "step out" of the workforce
The “broken rung” is the obstacle women face in the first step up to management. There are simply too few women to advance
There is an economic imperative to address gender equity as if your business survival depends on it.
