Raise the Bar, from Next Chapter Raise, is a podcast for female founders with a very simple mission - getting female founders funded faster. The podcast features news related to female founders, first-hand accounts from founders, investors, lawyers and other key players in the ecosystem, advice from our experts-in-residence, and alternative pitches that showcase our platform members. We will talk about how to fix the broken funding system to help more women succeed and how women can battle through the current system to access capital and scale their businesses. The podcast is hosted by Amanda Williams, strategy lead at Next Chapter, and a former impact investor and manager of accelerator programmes across Asia.mWith our podcast, we want to inspire, empower and celebrate female founders.
