🌐 Happy International Women's Day from C4 Ventures! 🌐

🔶 Did you know that less than 1 in 5 people working in the tech sector is a woman? 👩🏻‍💻 Stats from the Grande Ecole du Numérique reveal that only 30% of employees in the French digital sector are women, dropping to a mere 18% in Europe. 🌍 
🔶 According to Bpifrance, there's a positive trend in the entrepreneurial journey of women. 👩‍💼 More women are launching their own projects and gaining confidence in their entrepreneurial endeavors. 
🔶 However, some stereotypes remain. In startups, men can raise 1.6 times more funds than their female counterparts, and female teams are 4.3 times less well-funded than male teams.

➡️ It's time to break down these barriers! 💪 "We believe that women have their rightful place in tech, and it's time to bridge the gap," says our team at C4 Ventures. 🌟 
➡️ Our commitment is reflected in C4 Ventures' ESG policies. Diversity and inclusion are among our main focus areas when working with companies. 💼

On this International Women's Day, the C4 Ventures team extends our heartfelt congratulations to all the amazing women shaping the future of tech! 🎉 Special thoughts to all our women CEOs & co-founders, as well as to female members of our teams, our companies and all C4 community! Together, let's continue challenging stereotypes and creating a world where every woman thrives. 👩🏽‍🔬💼💪
