ROI is High for Startups by women

The Boston Consulting Group and Mass Challenge says that a startup found or Co-founder by women get less funding and investments but generate  much more revenue than startups who are led by male.

The report stated that when a woman founder or Co-founder give the idea of startup in front investors they don’t get the exact response but even the less investment the revenue generation  is very much high than the startups led by men

Around 350 alumni companies had taken part in the survey held by Mass Challenge (Mass Challenge gives support, mentorship, and programming for new startup companies to grow healthy.

The research have several points :

• Women founder or co- founder receive  funding $935,000 from investors that is less than 2.12 million from startups led by men.
• Even after the funding gap they generate $730,000 over five years.
• By every dollar of funding women have generated  71 cents where men had generated 31 cents only.
• For example if investors  have put the same amount of money in startups led by women  which they had invested  in male founder or co founder, then they would have generated $85 million  as compared to men.

“It’s very sad to know this fact that even in this century women get less funding then  men” said Katie Abouzahr global researcher at [email protected] and Co author of this survey.
