?? Don't miss the "Show Her The Money" Film Screening TODAY! The documentary follows four visionary female founders as they navigate the challenges of turning their ideas into reality with the support of angel investors. This event is co-hosted by Charlottesville Business Innovation Council (CBIC) and Codebase Coworking, and made possible by Venture Central’s Diversify-Connect-Fund project. After the screening, join a panel discussion moderated by Kate Byrne -- Tom Tom Foundation advisory board member & 2025 EVOLVE conference chair -- featuring female founders: Katie Begando (Founder of Bluubird), Naza Shelley (Founder of CarpeDM), Meg Pryde (Founder of Brandefy App), Megan Riggs (Founder of Crunchy Hydration), and Pauline Idogho (CEO and Founder of Mocktail Club). This event reveals how women receive less than 2% of venture capital funding and demystifies what venture capital truly is. These discussions build on the conversations Kate and other partners from the film led during the last Tom Tom Festival. Sponsored by: the Ascending Angels Committee, Charlottesville Angel Network, CAV Angels, Venture Central, Wells Fargo, Spectrum Integrators, and beverage sponsors, Mocktail Club and Crunchy Hydration. ???
