WIN empowers women to strengthen their financial position and participation in innovation by learning to invest and by investing together.
​
WIN lowers the barriers that hinder women's participation in investments by offering training, access to relevant investment opportunities, and a co-investment network.
Startups – or early-stage companies designed to scale-up quickly- are revolutionizing age-old industries with the click of a button. Their innovative solutions make our lives easier and better, and some are solving the most complex environmental and social issues.
Few of them succeed, but those that do, bring a significant return on investment for their investors, create new jobs and define the products and services of the future.

Even in the Nordic countries, some of the most gender-equal nations, the male-female wealth gap is significant. In Norway, for example, women have 38% less wealth than men, partly because of their low participation in investment activities.
​
The low participation of women in investments is due to the lack of knowledge on how to invest, a lack of networks and of role models.
-
Most women require a sense of mastery before taking action: learning how to do something before doing it.
​​
-
Women's motivations to invest go beyond achieving a return on investment. With a particular take on sustainability and social impact, traditional instruments are not attractive enough.
​​
-
Women's financial circumstances are different: women around the world experience a pay-gap, contribute less to retirement and bear the burden of childcare's impact on their careers.
Why for women?
To achieve structural change,
we must do things differently.
WIN is a catalyzer of change with a Learn-to-Invest training program for women and a Network for women to invest together.
