Womens Equity Lab’s (WEL) is a fun, collaborative and empowering way for women to actively engage in early-stage investing. Launched in 2017, we now make up a diverse and powerful network of 400+ women investors, with syndicates located in Victoria, Vancouver, Toronto, Manitoba, the Atlantic and Silicon Valley. Actively engaging women in the angel investment process translates into more women as advisors, board members, venture capitalists, angel investors and angel fund managers. In the WEL model, partners in the investment round meet regularly to learn how to invest in companies, discuss opportunities, vet deal flow and make investment decisions. Every participant ends up with a deeper understanding of the angel investment process, a portfolio of early-stage companies and a great network of accomplished women. Other benefits include: • Engaging with incredible entrepreneurs and investors • Building value for the community and society • Supporting companies that resonate with you and helping them grow • Participating in new fields, transforming industries and the latest innovations • Potentially making significant financial gains • Continuous learning while building value

Women’s Equity Lab (WEL) was launched to address the insufficient number of female investors in early-stage start-ups. WEL operates investment groups across North America and focuses on supporting the growing number of women seeking education and opportunities as angel investors. Each fund is led by an exceptional team of diverse and highly-qualified women. Embedding these women-led funds in an ecosystem that is historically underrepresented by women, WEL provides crucial and intentional funding to founders and levels the playing field for female founders and investors. The Women’s Equity Lab’s Silicon Valley fund brings international female investors to the table, giving them access to investing in some of the world’s most innovative early-stage technology startups.
