Access2Funding Initial Report Launch

The Barriers to Disabled Founders when trying to raise funds are astronomical. The global lack of verified and actionable data has a significant role to play in why disabled entrepreneurs are missing out on investment. To date, we have found no captured data on how many disabled entrepreneurs are being invited to pitch, and how much funding is invested in disabled entrepreneurs and their businesses.

We are engaging the global Investment community in offering greater and more equitable support to disabled founders and their companies, collecting data on the current barriers disabled founders face to growing their businesses.

In line with #IDPWD we launched our initial findings alongside The Federation of Small Businesses, Clu, Bethnal Green Ventures and Innovate UK.
