Just 2 per cent of early-stage investment funding in Australia flows to female founders.
Kelly Jamieson, who is co-chair of the Fearless Females Network and together with her sister Abbey Baker founded e-commerce success Edible Blooms, said the grants for startups were often narrow in their industry focus or criteria.
“For female founders it can be really hard to fit into that,” said Jamieson, whose business was self-funded.
