SUMMARY:Women Innovators Initiative (WI2): Running a Startup
DESCRIPTION:According to the Silicon Valley Bank report [1]\, 28% of U.S. startups have a female founder and only 14% have a female CEO. While venture capital is their most likely next source of funding regardless of the gender makeup of the founding team\, the startups with a female founder are slightly less likely to rely on them for funding. Companies founded solely by women garnered 2.1% of the total capital invested in venture-backed startups in the US [2]. \nFor the third Women Innovators Initiative (WI2) webinar\, we speak with two women founders and CEOs from Cornell University to find out about their experience as female founders/CEOs and to hear about the lessons learned during the formation and the growth of their venture. \nPanelists: \n\nRachel Dorin\, Ph.D.’13 Materials Science and Engineering\, President and CEO\, and Co-Founder\, Terapore – Dorin’s LinkedIn profile\nSiyu Huang\, Ph.D.’12 Chemistry MBA’14\, Co-Founder and CEO\, Lionano – Huang’s LinkedIn profile\n\nModerator: \n\nAlice Li\, Ph.D.\, Executive Director\, Center for Technology Licensing\, Cornell University\n\nRegister Now \nWomen Innovators Initiative (WI2): Running a Startup: Perspective of Two Women Founders and CEOs from Cornell \nApril 2 | 11:00 am – 12:00 pm (EST) \nFor more information on the Women Innovators Initiative visit Cornell Technology Licensing \n[1] 2020 Women in US Technology Leadership.
