In Hong Kong, over 80% of high-growth enterprises are founded by men, with Hong Kong trailing behind China and the United States. From our research, we know that one of the major hurdles women face in terms of expanding their business is securing external funding. Women are more risk averse when it comes to seeking external funding. At the same time, banks are not offering tailored financing assistance to women-owned businesses and private equity and venture capital sector in Hong Kong continues to be largely male-dominated which may be off-putting to women entrepreneurs.

This talk covers key challenges female entrepreneurs face in securing funding and what investors can do to help them address those challenges. TWF supporters are entitled to a special rate of HK$300 per person. Please enter "TWF082914" to enjoy this discounted rate.
