The female founder network meeting SHEtech2b went into the next round!
Our special guest Dr. Kornelia Waitz-Ramsauer, LL.M., inspired us with exclusive insights on the topics of "Investing from a women's perspective" and "Time Management". Her perspectives as a lawyer, tax consultant and investor were particularly valuable and stimulated many interesting discussions.
She gave the participants important tips to take with them:
- Even supposedly small and spontaneous ideas can become something big.
- Thorough preparation of legal issues and, in particular, the articles of association is crucial. Clean contracts not only make it easier for investors to get involved, but also save a lot of money and nerves in the event of family planning or dissolution.
- Honesty is essential when working with investors. Both sides should be open and transparent in discussions.
- The team plays a central role in attracting financing partners, which is why a solid team structure is essential.
- There are too few female investors. Financial training for children and young people could help to change the mindset in society.
- Negotiations with investors should always take place in person and not virtually. Personal contact offers a significant advantage, as you can better understand and feel your counterpart.
Many thanks to Waitz Haselbruner Rechtsanwälte GmbH for their hospitality and to all participants for the lively exchange and valuable discussions.
We are already looking forward to the next meeting and many more inspiring encounters!
