Sign up link: https://bit.ly/showherthemoneyfilm
HULA is thrilled to collaborate with the Vermont Women’s Fund and the Vermont Community Foundation to present Vermont’s premier film screening of “Show Her the Money.” The film highlights the fact that women receive less than 2% of venture capital funding, showcasing incredible female investors who are changing that narrative by investing in diverse female entrepreneurs and other underrepresented groups.
“Show Her the Money” is a powerful reminder that investing in women isn’t just about fairness—it’s about unlocking groundbreaking ideas, fueling economic growth, and shaping a more equitable future.
Following the screening Janice St Onge, President of Flexible Capital Fund will host a conversation with film producer and investor Catherine Gray.
You must get to the event on your own; however, you can ride the Champlain Shuttle to the Miller Building on Lakeside Avenue and walk the short distance to HULA from there. (Please walk with a buddy since it will be dark.)
