Entrepreneurs agree.
"Only two percent of venture capital funding actually goes to female-founded businesses, So, we're incredibly passionate about supporting other female founders," says Elizabeth Buffone, co-founder of Pointina Stitch Club.
"Not only are we here to get further exposure for our own businesses, but we're here to support each other," says Kate Lavigne, owner of Flutes and Foam.
