Resumo: This research paper investigates the financing gap in venture capital for female-founded ventures. Specifically, experiences of female founders in investor interactions are examined through a qualitative study by analysing their experiences with barriers to secure financing for the growth of their ventures. This study lays the groundwork for implementing operations for institutional investors to ensure a more diverse scouting and screening process of possible investments, with a practical application to the European impact investment venture capital fund Mustard Seed Maze. This application is presenting the results of the underlying study in six action points for the fund.
