Female Founders Alliance, a Seattle, WA-based network of women and non-binary founders, investors and startup advocates, launched a $10m venture fund to invest in technology companies.
Led by Founder and Managing Director Leslie Feinzaig, the firm also announced it has rebranded to “Graham & Walker.”
The fund has 105 investors: two thirds of whom are women, one third are people of color, and 40% are first-time fund investors. They include Bank of America; Carta Inc.; leadership coach Jerry Colonna; Docusign founder Court Lorenzini; and renowned expert Ruchika Tulshyan.
The fund started investing in early 2021. Early investments include:
- Dance Church
- Pair Tree
- Health in Her Hue
- Datacy
- Brightly
In addition to its summit, Graham & Walker will offer programs and training for rising leaders, founders and would-be investors. The firm will continue to operate its popular startup accelerator, Ready Set Raise, as well as its private community for startup founders.
