Capital F, one of the few all-female-led VC firms, announced Wednesday the $17 million close of its debut fund.
The firm backs companies building in the “female economy” — or the markets where women drive demand. That mainly falls into three buckets for the firm, Margaret Coblentz, the firm’s co-founder, told TechCrunch — women’s health, digital commerce, and AI tools. The latter is increasingly important since “women are disproportionately the victims of trust and safety violations,” Dawn Dobras, the co-founder of Capital F, added.
