InvestHER · A program of NMSA
Peer power + Capital + Community
For the women who refuse to build alone.
InvestHER is the room where founders, funders, and operators meet as peers. Capital, candor, and the community that moves you forward.

In the room, listeningThe reality
The rooms where capital moves were not built for her.
Most women build without the board, the backers, or the blueprint that others inherit through their networks. Not for lack of brilliance. For lack of access.
The room
This is not a networking event. It's what happens after the work gets done.
Founders raising and scaling. Funders writing checks. Operators who have been there. InvestHER puts them in the same room as equals, because the fastest way to move is together.
Founders, funders, and operators in one roomThe programs
Two ways in.
Real talk, real rooms.
Facilitated peer gatherings where women founders and funders trade hard lessons and warm introductions. Small rooms, high trust. Our Power Circles Plus events open the doors wider with showcases and celebrations.
Know the money.
A capital-fluency series that demystifies investing and raising for women. Understand how the money works, what investors look for, and how to ask, so you can command the room.
The point
Know the money. Own the room. Bring her with you.
Lines lead short and land hard. That's the InvestHER way: bold, direct, and never alone.
Why join
What you get in the room.
Peers, not gatekeepers
Founders and funders meeting as equals, with the pretense left at the door.
Capital fluency
Plain-language guidance on raising, investing, and the money that moves companies.
Warm introductions
The relationships and intros that usually take years, on a much faster track.
A community that backs you
Women who keep showing up for each other long after the event ends.
Event + Showcase + Celebration
Where it all comes together.
Power Circles brings the community into one room to trade hard lessons, make the introductions that matter, and celebrate the wins. Here is what is next.
Ambitious women do not collect business cards. They build power.
A facilitated experience designed for honest conversations, strategic connections, and the kind of relationships that open doors, unlock opportunities, and create lasting impact.

In her words
“I used to walk into capital conversations hoping to sound credible. Now I walk in knowing what to ask. The difference was a room full of women who had already done it and were willing to tell me the truth.Maureen Woolshlager
