Thousand Faces

Thousand Faces is an innovative, sector-agnostic, decentralized platform to enable UN SDG-focused female founders from around the world to raise initial capital. Our mission is to democratize funding for underfunded and excluded founders. Only 1.9% of total VC funding goes to fully female-founded companies, despite the fact that companies with more women on their boards make 2.5 times more returns. Female-founded companies make 10% more profit. Women make up only 30% of environmental and climate-related decisions, yet they tend to build more social and environmental impact businesses. It's obvious that investing in women is not only the right thing but also a more economically beneficial choice. We believe that by funding more women, we can contribute to a more sustainable world with greater prosperity for everyone, and serve both people and the planet.
