Introduction

A Women at Level39 Network event

Taking a Seat at the Table: Demystifying Investment Decisions

​Women remain underrepresented across the investment landscape, from investors and decision-makers to founders raising capital.

​As part of our Women at Level39 Network, we’ll bring together investors, founders and ecosystem leaders for an open conversation on how investment decisions are made, what influences them, and how we can create greater access and opportunity across the funding ecosystem.

​Together, we’ll explore investor psychology, uncover practical fundraising insights, discuss the power of building meaningful networks and challenge common assumptions about who gets a seat at the table.

​Whether you’re currently raising investment, considering becoming an investor, supporting founders or simply interested in understanding how capital flows through the innovation ecosystem, you’re warmly invited to join us.

 

Key discussion themes include:

  • ​Understanding investor psychology and what drives investment decisions

  • ​Practical advice for founders navigating the fundraising process

  • ​Building networks and accessing opportunities across the investment landscape

  • ​Exploring the barriers and opportunities for more women to become investors

  • ​Understanding the culture and dynamics that shape investing and fundraising
