AwakenHub & AwakenAngels Take New York

5 Jan

St. Brigid's Day, 1 February 2023

It was bound to happen. From day 1 of founding AwakenHub we have always had the support of our friends and allies in the USA especially our Global Diaspora Ambassador, Mary Ann Pierce, Founder & CEO of MAP Digital.

2023 will see our first mission to New York take place. 20 women will be travellin to partipate in a series of events including our inaugural AwakenHub & AwakenAngels flagship event co-hosted with our friends Digital Irish and Invest Northern Ireland on St. Brigids Day, 1 February at Bank of Ireland Hub NYC.
It’s an invitation only event. Spaces are limited and will most likely go on a waitlist. We will do our best to accommodate as many guests as possible. If you are an investor or prospective investor please get in touch.
Team AwakenHub and a cohort of our women founders from Ireland North & South will be travelling to meet with prospective clients, funders, investors, agencies.

We will also be announcing details of our AwakenAngels women led investor syndicate which we think you will not only love, but will want to be a part of. It’s the first and only Irish Cross-Border women-led investor syndicate investing in women founded businesses. It will democratize the investor landscape by making it affordable, accessible and game-changing. New women investors will have the support of existing more seasoned investors. The hope is that they invest greater amounts within AwakenAngels or get involved in other existing schemes as their investing confidence and experience grows.

In the meantime you can register your interest and join our mailing lists via www.awakenhub.com and www.awakenangelsfund.com
