Cadence Cash's "FundHER" Event Celebrates Women in Business

By: GWL Team | Thursday, 12 October 2023

Cadence Cash, the revolutionary finance platform, is getting up to conduct its debut "FundHER" event at the American Underground venue in Durham later in October in honor of Women's Small Business Month.

The event, which was announced today, features a remarkable roster of financing specialists from the Triangle region and beyond. Shawna Lemon of xElle Ventures, Jenn Summe of Priomordial, and Scott Wolford of the US Small Business Association (SBA) will participate in a panel discussion on diverse funding streams.

Andrea Inoken, the co-founder and COO of Cadence Cash, will also speak on the panel. Dr. Sarah Glova, a well-known writer for TechWire and the proprietor of Reify Media, will lead the panel discussion.

The major purpose of the event is to draw light on the vast range of financial sources accessible to businesses. "A lot of times when people think of funding, they immediately jump to the idea of venture capital," Andrea said. "We wanted to give people an idea of what other types of capital is available and what may fit your business at different stages."

A Fireside Chat with Rodney Hood of the National Credit Union Administration, moderated by Mikaya Thurmond of VSC, adds to the event's appeal. This discussion will look into the present situation and future possibilities for capital access among women business leaders, a topic that is particularly timely in light of recent litigation aimed at financing discrepancies.

The FundHER event begins at 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, October 26th, with a greeting from Katrece Boyd of North Carolina Central University. Tickets are available for purchase on Eventbrite.

Furthermore, Cadence Cash plans to provide interesting updates on the status of its AI lending platform, which converts invoices into dollars and provides micro-loans and lines of credit, hence increasing financial assistance for women entrepreneurs.

According to the Small Business Administration (SBA), North Carolina ranks 12th in the US, with women owning 37.2% of enterprises. In an era when financial access for women entrepreneurs is more important than ever, activities like FundHER aim to encourage collaboration and knowledge exchange among women small company owners, particularly in the Triangle area.

Attendees can expect to hear "great news" about Cadence Cash's launch status during the event, as the fintech platform continues to make progress in the market. FundHER promises to be a big meeting for female entrepreneurs searching for the resources and assistance they need to grow their company.
