Break the Roles: A World Class Opportunity

Have you heard the news? In Silicon Valley & beyond, there is a gender parity problem & according to sources such as Forbes & the McKinsey Global Report, the solution is worth trillions.

At Break the Roles startup pitch competition, brilliant & accomplished female founders take the challenge to present their startup vision before a panel of investors. After question & answer sessions & deliberation, only one startup takes the prize. Break the Roles advances gender equality by supporting female entrepreneurship & investing in the community. Female founders across a wide variety of sectors are encouraged to participate. If you are a female founder interested in pitching or an investor interested in judging at this upcoming event, apply today at breaktheroles.com



Each Break the Roles event benefits an organization dedicated to advancing women in STEM & leadership positions. Past events, for example, benefited Notre Dame HS Girls Robotics Team & Girls Garage (for more info. visit breaktheroles.com). All proceeds from ticket sales for the Oct. 16th event will benefit SV Women Who Code. Thanks for being a champion for women & girls- YOU ARE A HERO!
