Agenda

Walk-in

Welcome by moderator Katty Hsu (SHELEADS+ Global Foundation) and initiator Laura van Bekkum (o2Factoring), plus a word of welcome by our location host NIO House Rotterdam. We'll touch upon the current financial landscape for female entrepreneurs with Marianne Bruijn, managing director of Code V. Also we will highlight the several funding options you have in your journey to getting your business finances in place.

Welcome & Introduction to the Funding Landscape

Not the entrepreneurs, but rather the financiers will do a short 5-min pitch today (ha!) to inform you about who they are, why they are here today and what they could mean for you.

Pitches by Financiers

In smaller groups you will get the chance to informally connect with and pose your questions to each of the financiers present today. In several caroussel rounds of 15min you will get a good impression of each of the financiers who are present today. Confirmed financiers: Veronike Fikse (ABN Amro), Michelle ter Laak (Arches Capital), Sharon Klaver (The Angel Initiative) and Laura van Bekkum (o2Factoring).

Money Meets Ideas! 

Time to mix and mingle with the speakers and female entrepreneurs who are present today. A light lunch is offered to you by o2Factoring, catered by a local family owned business.
