Venture Capital Funds

While growing our investment portfolio, The Case for Her realized that we had an opportunity to address the structural issues and lack of funding for companies that directly address the key health issues that we are so passionate about. 

By moving upstream in the funding “supply chain” by investing in women-led venture capital funds, we can support brilliant female venture capitalists who support women-led and women-founded businesses while simultaneously increasing the number of goods and services designed by and with women in mind, and which address women’s needs. 

As women-led startups and startups directed at women emerge, we need people around the table that understand and support them. By adding female perspectives to due-diligence models and other points of traditional validation, we can redesign the financial ecosystem to not only include women founders but to actively encourage them and the markets that they serve.

“The Case for Her is truly pioneering what it means to have real impact on women’s health. Their diverse portfolio of startups, VCs, films, and non-profits show their deep understanding of the women’s health ecosystem. They have been critical supporters of Coyote Ventures, joining our first close and really believing in what we’re building since the beginning, and making introductions to additional values aligned investors.
