What continues to stand out is the power of community — people who are willing to share knowledge, open doors, and bring others along with them. The Girls Into VC Summit is built on that spirit: creating space for learning, connection, and real momentum.

Whether you’re investing, building, exploring a career in venture, or supporting others along the way, you are part of shaping what comes next.

We’re so glad you’re here, and we can’t wait to gather together and build the future of venture — together.

With gratitude,
