The community activating women's wealth
reaches new heights when it comes to women's health
investments
SAN
FRANCISCO, May 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In honor
of National Women's Health Week, Portfolia, the premier
investing funds designed for the world's most powerful community of
women investors, is announcing that they have invested a total of
$65M into women's health companies
and solutions.
Portfolia is creating, educating, and activating the largest
community of women investors around the globe. They are amongst the
first to recognize the immense potential of women's wealth, leading
their community to invest in breakthrough solutions to the world's
most pressing problems, with women's health at the forefront.
To date, Portfolia has made investments in 112 companies with 47
of those women's health companies being femtech and active aging
specific. A few of these include Madison
Reed, Maven, Everly Health, Bone
Health, Veana, Your Choice, Future Family, Willow,
Hey Jane, Lighthouse Pharma, L-Nutra, JoyLux, and others. The total
companies they've invested in serve over 102 million customers in
115 countries worldwide. Additionally, these companies have a
combined value of over $17B, with
over $1B in revenue and 10,000
employees worldwide. Plus, 69% of these companies are led by female
CEOs, and 49% are led by BIPOC individuals.
"At Portfolia, we believe in the power of activating our wealth
for returns and impact," says Trish
Costello, Founder & CEO of Portfolia. "Today, women in
the United States have
unprecedented access to wealth – with over $25 trillion of wealth in the U.S. and
almost 50% of it owned by women. This wealth is power – power to
create financial change and invest in the companies and businesses
that matter to us and meet our needs/desires. Our commitment goes
beyond traditional venture capital – we're pioneering change,
saving lives, and creating opportunities for all, while creating
the most powerful community of women investors globally, and the
first to activate our wealth to shape the future of
healthcare."
National Women's Health Week aims to highlight women's health
issues and encourage women of all ages to prioritize their
physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Portfolia similarly
aims to empower women to invest in companies that meet their health
needs, rather than settle for a healthcare system that doesn't
often consider the female body.
Traditionally underserved and overlooked, women have become the
catalysts for transforming the healthcare landscape. Women
investors are not a niche demographic; they're already a major
force in wealth management, controlling more than a projected
$30 trillion. Portfolia empowers
these women to support and invest in women-led and women-focused
businesses that meet their real needs – from reproductive health to
aging and everything in between. They are driving diversity,
inclusion, and economic empowerment in the entrepreneurial
ecosystem.
