THE STRENGTH IN NUMBERS PROGRAM
Strength in NumbersĀ is a CED initiative supporting female-identifying founders, funders, and operators through curated programming, intentional community building, and actionable insights.
By sponsoring Strength in Numbers, your organization has the opportunity to stand alongside a bold, growing movement dedicated to equity, innovation, and leadership in the entrepreneurial space.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Quarterly Events
From expert-led panels and founder workshops to creative, camaraderie-building experiences, each event is intentionally designed to create space for female-identifying to connect, share, and grow. These are high-touch, high-impact gatherings that bring together founders, funders, and operators across the region.
Monthly Community Meet-Ups
Casual, consistent, and intentionally intimate—these invite-only meet-ups foster meaningful relationships among female-identifying members at all stages of the startup journey. This is true community, not just networking.
Ongoing Digital Community
Our online space is where the conversation continues. It’s a place to celebrate wins, share lessons, offer support, and amplify the voices of female-identifying innovators shaping the future of the Triangle and beyond.
