For this first episode, Elizabeth Pauchet, La French Tech Amsterdam, interviewed Florence Richardson and Cecile Bassot, co-founders of WinEquity, a Venture Capital firm that wants to empower mixity by investing only in innovative startups that count at least 1 woman in their founding team. 

Florence and Cecile shared that only 24% of French startup founding teams include at least one woman (2021). However, a McKinsey study show that companies with a mixed board member perform better the ones without gender #diversity.  

WinEquity is also collaborating with organizations who share a similar goal like Femmes Business Angels to make a bigger impact.  

During this episode, Grace Mehrabe from Outmind and Pauline Koch from Sitowie testified of the positive aspects of this project. On the other side, Meryem El Aroui, a young investor, and Eric Phillipon, a veteran investor from Famae Impact, explained why they decided to invest in WinEquity.  

Do you believe that more diversity in tech can lead to more successes?
