WELCOME TO EVEN CAPITAL.
Venture capital for women, by women.

Our mission is simple.

Close a gap that unfairly disadvantages women by funding the future through significant investments.

Less than 3% of the world’s venture capital funding goes to female-founded businesses.

Between 2017 and 2021, female founders received less than 1.5% of the total capital raised by European start-ups.

Despite inequality in funding, women-led startups generate 10% more in cumulative revenue over a 5-year period.

Start-ups with a female founder generated 78 cents of revenue for every $1 of funding, while male-founded startups generated 31 cents (BCG).

The traditional venture capital ecosystem is teeming with obstacles for women, & none more frustrating or unfair than the lack of funding going to female business founders.

It’s time to even out the balance.

Baymatob

Founded after a traumatic birth experience, mechatronic engineer and mother Dr Sarah McDonald created Baymatob, an AI-guided maternal and fetal diagnostics company based in Australia with a passion for addressing unmet needs in women’s health.

PPH, or heavy bleeding after childbirth, is a serious complication of pregnancy and is the world’s leading cause of preventable maternal death. One mother dies every seven minutes due to postpartum haemorrhage globally.

Partnering with Global Bio Fund, Even Capital has invested in Baymatob’s A$4.6m Series A fundraising round to support the inspiring female leadership team and the company’s ongoing in-human clinical development and path to commercialisation for Oli.
