Here's a brief report from Angel Academe’s second AA North session, where I recently spoke to highlight the digital opportunities in the North and to encourage more female investors.

In a decade of technology-focused angel investing, I've often heard the comment that we need more women in technology – and, in particular, more female founders. In fact, more often than not it's me making the comment, as I'm an active backer of female entrepreneurs. But in the last five years, I've noticed the tide is turning – and at last we are actually seeing more female founders. So, have we now reached a tipping point?

I was delighted to be a guest on AWS's What Works podcast discussing the 4 things that matter when vetting potential investments.
