Co-founded by Angie Madara and Parul Kushagra, Athena X is a dynamic initiative committed to empowering women in entrepreneurship globally. It is igniting a revolution in the startup world by empowering women tech entrepreneurs to take their rightful place in the industry. We know that diversity and inclusion are the key to driving innovation and propelling the global economy forward, and that’s why we are on a mission to increase the number of women building technology businesses, and help boost the global GDP by an estimated USD 5 trillion.

1 Million Women

The 1 Million Women And Youth Entrepreneurship campaign is an initiative launched by Athena FundX with the goal of bridging the gender gap that exists in entrepreneurship and funding. One key aspect of this initiative is the establishment of a fund for female and young entrepreneurs.
This fund is designed to provide critical seed and test funding for female and youth-led startups and help support their growth and development. The fund is open to women and youth entrepreneurs globally and would prioritise those from underrepresented backgrounds.
