Funding School
Learn Funding, Then Get Funded
Access to capital is the greatest barrier women entrepreneurs encounter..and if you’re a woman of color, the barriers are even higher. While female founders of color are outpacing men in starting (and growing) companies in record numbers each year, Venture Capitalists and Angel Investors cite “inability to find them” as the number one reason their investment dollars aren’t going to them. The other reason is perceived lack of preparedness and readiness for funding. Well, we find that those theories are garbage! So we’ve created the solution to make sure women of color are not just found, but fully prepared.
Mogul Chix Academy presents Funding School. This three week course is designed to help you understand funding, know what investors are looking for, where to find investors, how to build real relationships that put you in front of investors, how to pitch for funding and how to GET the funding.
Live classes allow you to learn in real time with your peers and an instructor who can answer your questions, provide guidance and support. Please check the website calendar for the schedule of classes.

Live courses are taught in three-week intervals, three times per year. Sessions are delivered in real time via a private Zoom, for three consecutive days, starting at 9AM PST | 12PM EST. Attendees attend each session from the comfort of their home, office or any place with internet access. They have full access to course materials and audio/video replays for the duration of the Funding School cycle. Complete ongoing support is available via phone or email from the instructor during and three months after completion.
The next live Funding School is November 8, 2023. Register today!
