This blog is called Glass Half Funded, but the reality is women don’t receive anywhere near half of venture capital funding.

In 2021, companies with women-only founding teams received $6.4B of venture capital funding, according to PitchBook. And even though that’s 82% growth over 2020, it only represents 2% of overall VC funding. Over 80% of VC funding went to companies with all-male founders last year.  

In March, GHF tracked 27 deals across U.S. companies in various industries with founding teams of all women. Funding across these deals totaled $376.4M, representing 5% growth over February. The average deal size was $13.9M and the median deal size was $4.0M. This brings the total funding for the first quarter of 2022 to $1.0B!
