Our venture studio model is designed to empower female entrepreneurs, providing the resources, mentorship, and funding needed to create thriving businesses in industries that shape the future.

Founded in the Netherlands, Wominae is Europe’s first Impact Venture Studio dedicated to women-led innovation. Guided by our Closed Loop Gender Lens, we ensure that capital, mentorship, and opportunity circulate within a women-centered ecosystem from founders to funders to program partners.

We recognize that female founders face unique challenges, from limited funding opportunities to systemic biases that often overlook their innovations. That’s why we’ve created a venture ecosystem specifically designed to break down these barriers and provide female entrepreneurs with the tools, community, and capital needed to thrive.

€50 Million Commitment Over 5 Years                                                                      Wominae is currently raising capital for its first €50M Impact Fund, dedicated to supporting more than 100 women-led ventures over the next five years.

As we build our first portfolio, we are inviting visionary founders, aligned investors, and institutional partners from banks and government bodies to ecosystem organizations to join us in shaping the future of women-led innovation.

Through our venture studio model, we don’t just provide funding we actively collaborate with entrepreneurs to develop strategies, refine business models, and scale innovations for long-term success.

Our approach focuses on:

• Business strategy and growth support to help startups establish strong foundations for scalable success.
• Hands-on mentorship to guide founders through challenges and unlock opportunities.
• Access to capital through diverse investment models.
• Market positioning to strengthen product-market fit and business strategy.
• Community and networking by connecting entrepreneurs with a powerful support system of industry leaders.

Unlike traditional incubators or accelerators, Wominae builds alongside founders.
We’re partners in creation, not just mentors or investors. Every venture we support receives strategic funding, long-term collaboration, and tailored guidance designed to ensure sustainable, inclusive growth not short-term wins.

Our approach is deeply hands-on and impact-driven. We work closely with founders from idea to execution, embedding business strategy, capital access, and gender-intelligent design into every stage of venture development. This ensures that each company we co-create has a strong foundation, measurable impact, and a clear path to scale.

We recognize that female founders often face systemic barriers — from limited access to capital to underrepresentation in networks and decision-making processes. Wominae actively addresses these gaps, providing not only funding but also mentorship, market insight, and introductions to banks, government institutions, investors, and ecosystem partners.

We are not:
– A short-term accelerator chasing quick exits.
– An incubator trading mentorship for equity.

We are:
– An Impact Venture Studio that co-creates and invests in women-led ventures.
– A long-term partner focused on scalable, inclusive, and purpose-driven innovation.
– A connected community guided by our Closed Loop Gender Lens, ensuring value and opportunity flow throughout the ecosystem from founders to funders to partners.                                                                                                                                – A collaborative platform that brings together corporate, financial, and public-sector partners to strengthen ventures and amplify impact.

Wominae supports founders through three collaborative investment paths, tailored to each venture’s stage from early co-building and product validation to revenue-based and scale-up funding.

Each model is founder-friendly, flexible, and impact-aligned, supporting ventures to scale sustainably while enabling founders to preserve their equity, ownership, and vision, and maintain control of their business.

Our approach ensures that every venture grows sustainably, retains strategic independence, and benefits from hands-on mentorship, market positioning support, and access to a powerful network of industry leaders and institutional partners.

We work closely with founders to:

• Define clear business strategies and growth plans.

• Refine product-market fit and positioning to attract customers and investors.

• Build strong teams and operational structures to support scale.

• Unlock new opportunities through networks, partnerships, and sector expertise.

• Align ventures with measurable impact goals that reinforce long-term sustainability and social value.

This model allows us to co-create ventures that are both commercially viable and impact-driven, ensuring that women-led startups have the resources, guidance, and strategic connections to thrive in competitive markets.

Entrepreneurs joining Wominae gain access to a comprehensive, hands-on support system designed to drive sustainable business expansion, leadership development, and innovation. Through our Three Pillars of Support, founders receive tailored guidance, mentorship, and business development tools that empower them to refine strategies, strengthen leadership capabilities, and position their businesses for exponential growth.

Our approach is centered on three key pillars that ensure founders have the tools and expertise needed to thrive, scale, and disrupt industries with confidence. Wominae provides strategic support in venture readiness, product and market innovation, and leadership development, ensuring that entrepreneurs have everything they need to break barriers, drive impact, and succeed in competitive markets.

Wominae, we are more than investors we are partners in building high-impact ventures, challenging industry biases, and transforming markets. Our mission is to ensure female entrepreneurs receive the resources, expertise, and capital necessary to lead successfully and scale their businesses for long-term growth.

Our 12–18-month program delivers hands-on guidance, strategic mentorship, and access to an influential network of investors, experts, and thought leaders. Whether you’re an early-stage startup preparing to launch or a revenue-generating scaleup looking to accelerate growth, we tailor our support to meet your business needs.

Our commitment extends beyond investment, we are dedicated partners in building a future where female entrepreneurs thrive.

Our approach goes beyond funding, it’s about creating a thriving ecosystem of female founders, industry leaders, and investors who are committed to transforming markets and driving impact.

When women-led businesses thrive, industries transform, communities flourish, and economies grow stronger.

That’s why we are redefining the way startups scale and ensuring that women’s voices lead the innovation of the future
