Crowdfunding offers individuals the opportunity to invest smaller amounts of money in a company they believe in, allowing them to become part-owners of a company by buying shares.

Thereby, crowdfunding is a way to give you, our members, the opportunity to own a piece of Female Invest. In our latest funding round, we've set aside a portion of shares that you can invest in on the exactly same terms as our institutional investors.

Crowdfunding isn't just about raising funds. It's about coming together as a community to drive real change. It’s your chance to own shares in Female and have a stake in our mission.

How is crowdfunding different from investing in the traditional stock market?

Crowdfunding or startup investing is the process of investors buying shares in early stage companies. It differs from traditional stock market investing as startups are typically not listed on public markets, meaning they are still privately owned.

While both crowdfunding and the traditional stock market involve investing money in businesses, they differ in terms of ownership structure, regulation, accessibility, risk, return potential, and liquidity.

Each option appeals to different types of investors with varying risk appetites and investment objectives. You can read more about crowdfunding here or in our course on crowdfunding.
