About the Founders
This week it’s all about innovation and wellness! Our three founders from the InvestHer Directory all believe this combination is the the way forward when it comes to women’s wellbeing. Ciara Donlon started Theya Healthcare when breast cancer survivors regularly came to her for comfortable, functional and beautiful alternatives when healing after their surgeries. So she created underwear made from bamboo material that helps them heal better. Polly Rodriguez believes all women deserves to experience pleasure in a safe way and by creating beautiful, body safe vibes & accessories through Unbound she is determined to make it happen. Our final trailblazer this week is Joanna Griffiths, busy bringing revolutionary solutions to life through Knix and transforming an underwear market that had too much frill and not enough function.

What a journey!

The InvestHer Directory started with one entry, one inspiring female founded company that deserved to be found by investors, partners and customers.
​
Today we have over 1500 incredible companies founded by women from around the world, and we continue to grow each week!
Picture

The fact that only 2% of Venture Capital goes to women-only founded teams is unfortunately neither a surprise to anyone anymore, nor has it changed in more than 30 years! The Gender Funding Gap is estimated to be $1.7 Trillion and even though all evidence show that investing in (and buying from) women entrepreneurs is a $12 TRILLION opportunity, progress remain slow.
​
We created the InvestHer Directory because of our fundamental belief that women are the greatest untapped resource to re-ignite the global economy and for that to happen, they need a platform which allows them to be found by investors, partners and customers. The InvestHer Directory is that platform.
