When Gemma Lloyd set out to raise $2.2 million for her jobs platform Work180, she took the challenges faced by female founders raising funds to the next level by adding one more.
The startup she co-founded with Valeria Ignatieva in 2015 is all about supporting women in the workplace. It pre-screens employers to see how well they support women’s careers, such as paid parental leave, pay equity, and flexible working arrangements.
