INVEST IN WOMEN.

Six years ago we launched a mentoring community for Female Founders. Last year we decided we needed to do something with more impact and Fierce Foundry was born.

Realizing the opportunity for founders, investors, and the economy, we decided to build a Venture Studio focused on Femtech.

Here's why:

  1. Femtech is on track to be a trillion-dollar industry in less than five years
  2. We're seeing a significant increase in Femtech exits and there's a ton of "white space" for new products and services
  3. Studio models provide a specific benefit to female founders as we can be part of the company from idea to exit.

Note: the success of other venture studios and femtech companies does not guarantee Fierce Foundry will have the same results.

Clearly - this is where we can have impact on the success of Femtech, Female Founders, and the economy.

Here's how the studio works:

  1. We co-found our companies, which we call FierceCos from the ideation stage - this can be our ideas with select founders or founders that come to us with ideas
  2. We continually work through stage one: Ideation and Analysis to filter the best ideas and founders to the next stage
  3. This year we plan to move at least three companies into the Beta/Market Fit stage and we will increase that to up to 5 per year as we raise more funds in the future
  4. Each stage is designed specifically to work how women work - milestones with flexibility
  5. Each stage has partners with expertise but also a strong knowledge of health and tech

Right now we are assessing founders and product/service ideas to move into Beta/Market-fit for this year.

To get these first three launched, we need to cover expenses specific to the first two stages.

We've worked diligently to build the best team possible. Our management team covers all areas needed to run the studio and our partners. Our partners will come on fractionally to start. We have a team of coaches, not mentors, with the objective of seeing each founder and FierceCo "win the game". Our expert team boasts appearances in Forbes, Adweek, TechCrunch, Adage, and other major publications.
