About WA4STEAM
WA4STEAM focusses on women-led startup project in the STEAM fields, but what is in a name?
WA4STEAM is a growing international community of women angel investors seeking to expand women led entrepreneurial presence in the STEAM fields.
WA4STEAM counts with a rich network of strategic partners and other angels’ groups, which reinforces our scope of support and increases our investment capability by connecting the companies in our angels’ portfolios to other ecosystems.
Our members hold a wide variety of backgrounds with professional expertise in biosciences, mathematics, finance, law, accounting, communication education and training, that add significant value to the early stages of the startups’ life cycle.
We aim to provide not only seed capital but to become a strategic partner nurturing women future leaders and role models for society.
Our history started in 2018, after participating in a European Union Business Angels for Europe’s Entrepreneurs Program (WA4E) at IESE (Spain). At program termination, a group of women, decided to set up a non-profit association focused on supporting other women’s initiatives in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Arquitecture and Mathematics, STEAM.
WA4STEAM members are more than business angels driven by profitability, since they aim not only to provide seed capital, but also to become a strategic partner nurturing women future leaders and role models.
