Join us for a screening of the award-winning film SHOW HER THE MONEY at AMC West Shore 14 on Monday, September 23 at 5:30PM, hosted by Embarc Collective. We’re excited to welcome the film to Tampa on its 50-city worldwide tour.
The film addresses the disparity in the startup world, where a mere 2% of capital investment is allocated to women, despite research proving that women-led startups deliver double the value per dollar. After the film, we’ll host a panel discussion with a cast member and other community leaders to discuss actionable strategies to close the gender gap in startup investing.
