The new study, ‘Women Founders in European Deep Tech Start-ups’ reveals that women founders in the field receive less total funding compared with men founders. According to the study, women
are underrepresented in deep tech start-ups, with less than one quarter (24%) of deep tech start-ups created in 2022 having at least one woman in the founding team. 7,165 start-ups founded since
2010 were analysed as part of the study using the Dealroom database (a global provider of data and intelligence on start-ups and tech ecosystems) across 37 European countries.

In a world that is increasingly connected, but paradoxically more distant, relational intelligence is presented as a key tool to strengthen our relationships and meet the challenges of engagement.

What comes to mind when you hear the term “stay-at-home mom”? Though some may think of dedication and family values, there are many negative ideas in our culture about women who spend their time caring for their children and home. Uneducated, boring, and not ambitious are a few, and more recently, the term “tradwife”. Though this word technically describes women promoting a “traditional” lifestyle on social media, “tradwife” has become—in practice—a disparaging label broadly used for any woman engaged in full-time homemaking.
A book released earlier this month, The Power Pause: How to Plan a Career Break After Kids—and Come Back Stronger Than Ever by Neha Ruch, addresses these dynamics head on. It challenges the clichés of a mother “at home” and explores the simplistic thinking that stubbornly persists around motherhood and career.
