WomensVCFund II is a venture capital fund established in late 2017 by Edith Dorsen and Monica Dodi, based in Portland, Oregon. The fund focuses on addressing gender disparity in venture capital, which has historically allocated less than 5% of funding to women-led teams. It targets revenue-generating, capital-efficient companies seeking Series A and B financing.
This fund invests in companies with gender-diverse leadership, emphasizing the role of diversity in entrepreneurial success. Sectors of interest include healthcare, consumer products, education, and technology. The fund seeks to support high-quality, female-led startups that demonstrate capital efficiency.
Notable portfolio companies include Newsela, an instructional content platform for K-12; HopSkipDrive, a youth transportation service; Nvoicepay, a cloud-based accounts payable solution acquired by FLEETCOR; and Decorist, an online interior design service acquired by Bed, Bath and Beyond. Other companies include EdSurge, acquired by ISTE, and Slumberkins, focused on social and emotional learning for children.
