SheEO's $1B Perpetual Fund
Summary
SheEO launched in 2015, and is a perpetual loan fund powered by the ‘radical generosity’ of several activators who each contribute the equivalent of 1,100 dollars (or $92/month) into a pool of capital for women-founded ventures solving social problems. The long-term goal is to reach a million women activators by the end of this decade, and a billion dollar fund helping 10,000 entrepreneurs every year.
Goal
SheEO commit to raising a $1B Perpetual Fund in the next 10 years and unlocking 100x beyond that for follow-on funding for SheEO Ventures. SheEO operates in 5 countries and plans to be on every continent within 5 years.
