The Texas Women Ventures Fund has been named a national Best Practice by The
Urban Institute for providing capital to women entrepreneurs. In an extensive
report funded by the Kaufman Foundation titled, "Capital Access for Women:
Profile and Analysis of U.S. Best Practice Programs," "TWVF’s Dequity product
is praised for allowing a larger number and a wider range of women-owned businesses
to have access to capital, particularly in comparison to venture capital programs."
The report was released in late March and you can read the
full report.
