Make Investing Work for You
In celebration of International Women’s Day, join us for an open, easygoing conversation about where your money goes — and why that choice matters.
More women are rethinking investing and asking different questions. Can returns reflect what you care about — women’s health, climate, community, education, or innovation — without sacrificing rigour or opportunity? Can investing be personal and strategic?
This conversation is about understanding that you have options. One of those options is creating impact by investing in start-ups.
You don’t need to be a finance expert to participate in investing. You do need curiosity, a willingness to ask questions, and an interest in how capital can move more directly — supporting real businesses and real solutions without waiting for bureaucracy to catch up.
This conversation is for women who want:
- their capital to support real-world solutions, not just abstract concepts
- to engage in areas they care about, such as women’s health, climate, education, or emerging tech
- conversation, shared perspective, and practical insight
If that sounds like you, join us.
Hosted by Capital Angel Network and SheBoot, in partnership with Invest Ottawa, this intimate breakfast brings together women founders, investors, and women who are simply curious about investing for a thoughtful, experience-driven discussion.
You’ll hear from women investors about how they think through their decisions, and from founders about the real impact early funding has had on their businesses. It’s a chance to hear both sides of the table — grounded in experience, not jargon.
Join us in a comfortable setting where you can learn from other women how to manage risk — financially and emotionally.
No pressure. No prerequisites.
Just real conversation, shared perspectives, and space to ask questions.
Attendance is intentionally limited to keep the discussion open and engaging.
Consider bringing a friend — because while investing decisions are personal, perspective makes them stronger.
We’d love to see you there. Doors open 8:00 am. Breakfast is available!
