To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps her Department has taken to implement the recommendations of The Alison Rose Review of Female Entrepreneurship on increasing the number of female angel investors in the UK.

The ‘Women backing Women’ campaign was launched under the auspices of the Rose Review via the Angel Investment Taskforce, led by the UK Business Angels Association.

This campaign seeks to support women to become angel investors across all four nations in the UK, and has engaged thousands of new and prospective female angel investors to help unlock new source of early-stage funding for female founders across the UK. Further measures to increase the number of women choosing to become angel investors will be taken during 2024.
