We’ve got exciting news to share — and it’s a big one!
On June 20th, we’re bringing together the voices shaping Europe’s future at the European Female Founders & Investors Summit in
Sofia, Bulgaria!
And that’s not all — this milestone event will also mark the official launch of the
European Female Founders
Association.
But this is more than just an event. It’s the next chapter in a story that began three years ago.
On May 13th, 2022, the European Female Founders Forum was born—an initiative sparked by
Mariya Gabriel, then- European Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth that brought together female founders from across the continent to ask:
“What’s holding us back—and how do we break through?”
We didn’t just talk.
We built.
From intimate roundtables to EU-shaping agendas, from Brussels to Barcelona, we’ve:
✨Hosted the Fostering Female Entrepreneurs Summit in Berlaymont Building, Brussels
✨Contributed to the launch of the New European Innovation Agenda
✨Built cross-border partnerships and collaborations
✨And supported launching of
HER FUND Project, a bold initiative to bridge the funding gap for women founders
This work has been driven by vision, grit, and solidarity—and now, we’re scaling that impact.
If you believe in a Europe where women entrepreneurs thrive, grow, and lead — we want you with us.
Join us this June in Sofia
