Only 14 pct of Canadian VC partners are women: report
Only 14 percent of all partners at Canadian venture capital firms are women, according to a report released by Highline BETA’s Female Funders and Hockeystick. This compares with 7 percent of partners at the top 100 U.S. venture capital firms. Women in Venture, produced in partnership with National Angel Capital Organization (NACO), also found that top Canadian funds run by teams without female partners accounted for 84 percent of capital committed. Lauren Robinson, executive director of Female Funders, said that while Canada is "leading the conversation" about women entrepreneurs "we also need to consider who’s on the other side of the table.”
