📍 Austin, United States🗓 Founded 2014👥 8 employees💰 Last funded Dec 2020
The woman entrepreneur is the center of our story. We know that when women succeed, everyone succeeds. Families prosper. Communities grow. We all win. Founded in 2014, Beam (formerly known as Women@Austin) was created after several of Austin’s most experienced female entrepreneurs and executives came together and decided they wanted to do something proactive to increase the ratio in women-led and founded Austin businesses with the goal to make Austin the most accessible, nurturing place for women-led businesses in the country. Whether it’s battling the funding gap (of the $100 billion in venture funding that goes to entrepreneurs in America, less than 3% goes to women founders) - or encouraging resilience, self-confidence, and conviction, Beam supports women entrepreneurs through a variety of resources. Beam builds a foundation of knowledge for women through ideas, expertise and resources, and assists their trajectory of business growth with access to effective programming. Our programming is varied and includes roundtables, workshops, and networking dinners with potential funders. The fundamental tenet of Beam is to create a sense of belonging, regardless of affluence, race or success level. Our networks are more brilliant through diversity and inclusivity. Beam empowers women to be remarkable catalysts and contributors to their families, communities and the broader economy. Beam is an initiative of Notley. The Notley team creates and supports ecosystems of knowledge, capital and collaboration to enable the purpose-driven people and organizations to scale impact and change the world.
