Fierce Foundry is the first U.S.-based venture studio dedicated to launching and scaling female-founded startups from impactful idea to successful exit.
We are a FemTech Venture Studio on a mission to close the funding gap for women by making FemTech startups more investable from idea to exit. We co-found companies alongside visionary founders, providing initial capital, hands-on product and business development, support through later-stage fundraising, and strategic guidance all the way through exit. Our end-to-end model outperforms traditional venture and accelerator approaches by deeply embedding with founders at every stage. This approach not only builds high-growth companies that improve women’s lives, it also unlocks outsized returns for investors by tapping into an overlooked, high-potential market with built-in demand and proven undercapitalization.
INVEST IN WOMEN.
When you invest in female founders, especially in FemTech, everyone wins.
For every $1 invested in women’s health, $3 is projected in economic growth
A $300M investment into improving female health could generate $13B for the global economy
Women-led companies yield better returns on investment (ROI), generating 35% higher ROI than men-led
Female-founded companies earn $.78 on every investment dollar vs. $.31 for male-founded.
