We are happy to announce our partnership with the Women Startup Competition. As ambassadors we support the representation of SEA Women startups at the WSC Events.

 

ABOUT WSC

Women Startup Competition is an annual startup competition in Europe. It was founded in order to give opportunities for female entrepreneurs and their team members to meet investors, receive support and advice to reach their business goals. The competition aims to increase the currently very low ratio of women in business.

Women Startup Competition was born in 2012, in Budapest, Hungary. Since then the movement has constantly been blooming and growing, attracting the creative female entrepreneurs, who we accelerate to speed up on the superhighway of business. The community and the network keep growing from the very beginning, and we constantly expand geographically. WSC is present in 12 European countries offering training series and competitions as well.

The aim of the Women Startup Competition is to grow the presence of women in business, and in order to do this, we provide training and opportunities for more-and-more gender diverse startups to realize their dreams and encourage them to do what they love to do.

Our series of competitions increase the number of innovative enterprises where the majority of the founders are women. We would like to improve the knowledge of female entrepreneurs, encourage and help them, and would also like to connect them with leading corporate innovation centers, venture capitalists, angel investors, and other possible traction generation partners.

 

WHY APPLY
