Ready Set Raise is a virtual, industry agnostic national startup accelerator, consciously created by and for women and non-binary founders.
Ready Set Raise is a virtual, industry agnostic national startup accelerator, consciously created by and for women and non-binary founders.
We started Ready Set Raise 4 years ago with the mission to bust the gender gap in venture capital. Traditional accelerators don’t work for women founders, but ours does, time and time again. We’ve been in your shoes, and on the investor side too, so we know what founders need to be successful. And with each new cohort, our program gets even better.
2021 Program Applications Opening in June
With over $15M raised by alumni at the pre-seed or seed stages, we are proud that Ready Set Raise has achieved demonstrable results for women founders seeking vc funding. Through our program, we do everything in our power to unlock a real path to success for each and every company in our cohort. We do things differently, from introducing free childcare in our first year, pioneering in pitch translation, whispering to founders through tricky fundraises, and uncovering the real secrets to succeeding with VC. Our graduates see the difference and are more likely to get results.
“I would not be in this position today without you. I tried and failed to raise, and now after Ready Set Raise I have more commitments than space in my 1.5M round.”
“Before Ready Set Raise, I was overwhelmed with inbounds from investors. No one I spoke to during that time seemed to be willing to invest in my pre-seed round despite our demonstrated traction. The accelerator set me up with effective meetings with the right investors, and I was able to oversubscribe my $500k round.”
"Leslie and the FFA team helped me secure critical introductions that led to checks written in my round. Thank you!"
“Before Ready Set Raise, I met with investors all across Silicon Valley, attended other ‘women founder programs’, and I tried for months to raise, unsuccessfully. Through Ready Set Raise I *actually* learned to pitch and the accelerator connected us to best-in-class mentors and investors with years of industry experience. Their guidance and coaching helped us close our first fundraising round within weeks of the program’s end.”
We understand the unique challenges that await women and non-binary founders, especially those of marginalized identities. We are here to help. Even if you don’t think your company is qualified or ready for our accelerator, we encourage you to apply. Our program is designed to support a wide variety of founders, including first-time founders.
In our three years running the accelerator, we have learned that companies we are best suited to help fundraise have clarity on their business, their product, and have evidence of demand. This could mean anything from a waitlist, to signed LOIs, to pilot customers, to paying customers.
We specifically look for companies that understand their business model, target customer, and go to market strategy. We want you to use your time with us to fundraise, not to pivot! If you’re in the idea phase of your company or product, we’d be happy to refer you to other suitable programs, or would love to see you apply for the next Cohort!
If you are not selected, we will create an opportunity for you to get feedback from the selection process, and if eligible, you will be added to our Founder Community where you’ll benefit from programming, resources, and support from fellow founders year-round.
As far as you, the founder? Founders who succeed are highly coachable, skilled at interpreting and implementing feedback, and ready to put their full focus on the program.
Applicants must have a woman or non-binary CEO. CEOs are encouraged to bring co-founders to all programming.
With three Cohorts of 8 companies each under our belt, and over $15M raised by alumni at the pre-seed or seed stages, we are proud that Ready Set Raise has achieved demonstrable results specifically for women founders seeking vc funding. In our alumni’s words:
“I would not be in this position today without you. I tried and failed to raise, and now after Ready Set Raise I have more commitments than space in my 1.5M round.”
“Before Ready Set Raise, I was overwhelmed with inbounds from investors, which felt great at first, but I was new to venture; I didn’t know how to build a strategy around fundraising. No one I spoke to during that time seemed to be willing to invest in my pre-seed round despite our demonstrated traction. RSR gave me the coaching, push, and access to experts to help me raise. The accelerator set me up with effective meetings with the right investors, and I was able to get commitments and oversubscribe my $500k round.”
Before Ready Set Raise, I met with investors all across Silicon Valley, attended other ‘women founder programs’, and I tried for months to raise, unsuccessfully. Through Ready Set Raise I *actually* learned to pitch and the accelerator connected us to best-in-class mentors and investors with years of industry experience. Their guidance and coaching helped us close our first fundraising round within weeks of the program’s end.”
There are four main pillars of the accelerator:
You and you alone can fundraise for your company. However, we will give you guidance, tools, and coaching to help you through the process. Throughout the program, you will receive direct instruction on how to execute a fundraising process: pitch deck, pitch & investor Q&A, deal terms, building a data room, investor list building & outreach, taking investor meetings, generating momentum in your raise, and more. We close the program with a week of investor meetings where we will put you in front of 150+ investors.
In 2021, we expect that the program will be fully virtual, occupying up to 30hrs/week during the program. If conditions permit, we will evaluate the option to return to a blended virtual and in-person program.
Our Investor Showcase features vetted investors from diverse geographies who are known to invest in women and non-binary-founded startups.
