Being part of FFR community has really been so rewarding for my personal and business growth. I have met so many amazing fellow female founders that have been through or are going through the same journey as me. Everyone is always so welcoming and ready to listen. I could not thanks Emmie and the team enough for creating this wonderful space!

FFR is quite simply the best business network there is in terms of adding value to your business, support, mentorship, programmes, peer community support and so much more. If you are a female founder, this should be your first port of call... and massive shout out to the founder herself Emmie Faust who's mission is to elevate those around her.

I recently attended an AI workshop organised by Female Founders Rise, led by Siddhi Mittal from yhangry, and it completely changed my perspective on how I can use AI in my business.

I'd been aware of AI for a while and was already using it in small ways, but I always felt there was a gap between knowing it could help and understanding how to use it effectively. The workshop broke everything down in a practical, jargon-free way and showed us how to build AI agents that work alongside our existing tools and workflows.

What impressed me most was how actionable the session was. I came away with a much clearer understanding of what's possible and have already started applying what I learned in my day-to-day business.

Female Founders Rise consistently creates opportunities to learn from experienced founders and experts in a supportive, welcoming environment. Every event I've attended has been packed with value, and this workshop was no exception.

If you're a founder looking to develop new skills, build confidence and connect with an inspiring community of women in business, I would highly recommend joining Female Founders Rise.

— Anna Youngson, Founder of Majury Merchandising

Organisation was outstanding all the way through. Structure of the program was excellent. The guidance received was excellent. Having investors to practice pitch to was so helpful. Meeting female founders, sharing notes, ideas and painpoints and realising I am not alone in the challenges of fundraising. Having such great sponsors behind the program that helped keep the costs down. The opportunity to join an in-person event with an investment panel to answer our questions. Overall 5/5! Thank you FFR!

I closed my over subscribed pre-seed round while I was on the accelerator programme. The key is to apply the learnings from the programme immediately and take advantage of the network made available by FFR.

I can’t thank Emmie and Dan enough for helping me with my fundraise!

The FFR Accelerator gave me a much clearer understanding of the funding landscape and helped me identify the types of investors that align with both my mission and stage of growth. It also equipped me with the practical tools, documents, and confidence needed to start meaningful investor conversations. Beyond the programme itself, one of the most valuable aspects was being surrounded by a cohort of supportive and inspiring women founders whose feedback, encouragement, and shared experiences made the journey feel far less isolating. Thank you to the whole team for organising this programme.

Cannot believe what good value the fundraising workshop has been. I haven't necessarily come out with a bunch of investor network but the confidence and tools to start the approach and a better deck and understanding what I'm doing with it. And also a fantastic AI agent workshop. Thank you #girlpower

Loved this experience and feel incredibly grateful to have been selected onto the cohort. The accelerator has given rich insight into how VCs evaluate your pitch deck and startup. The hard, candid and honest advice was incredibly valuable. The network with the cohort has been great, plus the exposure to actual investors (whom I have spoken with) has been brilliant.

Great investor communication workshops with Dan Bowyer, improved my confidence in approaching angels and venture capitalists

The FFR Accelerator helped me to get a a clear idea of what types of funding and investors are out there, who is right for me, and what tools and documents I will need to go out and have investor conversations, most importantly with the mindset I will be able to successfully raise. On top of that the women in my cohort were constructive and supportive in their feedback and I feel I have made new connections to continue my founder journey alongside.

An amazing community and support. Just finished the FFR accelerator. Started off very unsure about the process of raising and how to actually get started. I have left with a clear plan and excited to get going!

I've taken part in the FFR programme whilst preparing for our SEIS/EIS raise, and it has been one of the most valuable founder programmes I've attended.

The biggest outcome for me has been confidence. The programme helped me refine my pitch deck into something I'm genuinely confident presenting to investors, while also giving me a much deeper understanding of term sheets, fundraising mechanics, and how investors evaluate opportunities.

The quality of delivery has been excellent throughout. Dan brings a rare combination of experience, honesty and authenticity, making every session engaging and practical rather than theoretical. Leah is incredibly professional, organised and supportive, ensuring everything runs smoothly and that founders always feel supported.

The format itself works exceptionally well. The sessions are well structured, the pacing is right, and the breakout rooms create valuable opportunities for discussion and peer learning.

Perhaps the greatest value, however, comes from the founder community. Being able to connect with other founders who are navigating similar challenges, share experiences, and learn from each other's journeys has been invaluable.

If you're a founder preparing to raise investment, I would highly recommend FFR. It provides practical knowledge, genuine support, and access to a network that continues to add value long after the sessions end.

Female Founders Rise Accelerator - such an incredible experience!
Dan and Lea bring so much energy and knowledge to share with the cohort. Incredibly well organised, great guest speakers - really empowering and highly recommend to anyone about to raise investment.
I have learnt so much, not just from Dan and the team but from my peers too - don't ever think you know it all!
Main take away, despite the knowledge, confidence, clarity on my pitch - a wonderful group of women I know I can call on any time to ask questions, pitch to for feedback and lean on when times are hard - as we all know being a founder is incredibly hard at times.

The FFR community is nothing short of incredible. Amazing events (big shout out to the AI event, which has been a gamechanger in how I work), genuinely supportive peers, and a programme that delivers at every session.

I'm approaching the end of the most recent Fundraising Accelerator programme (Cohort 8) and every single session has been brilliant - the support from the rest of the cohort is real and you feel it.

What Emmie has built is making a genuine impact and creating a level playing field for female founders. A must-join.

I joined the AI workshop and it was AMAZING! First of all, beautiful venue, the best host (Emmie) and speaker (Siddhi), super practical and informative session and an inspiring crowd! Absolutely loved it! I flew in from Budapest just because of the event and I’d do it again (in fact, I will) ✨

Fantastic event. Each aspect was so thoughtfully curated. An excellent panel host, brilliant speakers; open, honest, inspiring.
Even had a photographer doing head shots at the start.
Highly recommend.

We joined the FFR cohort 7 accelerator and it was fantastic for a number of reasons.

Firstly, the content. We had some excellent sessions (all spearheaded by the brilliant Dan but with an array of valuable guests) that really helped sharpen our pitch, commercial thinking and approach to fundraising.

Secondly, the connections. We've made friendships with a number of people from our cohort and the wider network and we're all championing each other to succeed.

Finally, the sense of ongoing community. It was so empowering to join FFR when me and my co-founder were feeling a bit overwhelmed by fundraising but the support has gone well beyond the 8 week accelerator. It's opened doors for us that we'll be forever grateful for!

I’ve been a member of Female Founders Rise B2B Group for a while now and it's hands down the best value subscription I pay for in my business. The learning content and community alone would be worth the monthly fee.

On top of that I've met genuinely great women who've become collaborators, and picked up two work referrals totaling £4k so far, with both looking like long-term clients. So the ROI is brilliant on a really reasonable subscription.

Emmie and the team are also making a massive impact on levelling the playing field for women seeking investment — I always recommend the accelerator and funding resources to my own clients who are raising.

Definitely recommend!

Emmie through FFR has built something very special. The events are well curated, the speakers and panels are consistently high quality, and the conversations that happen in the room are honest, practical and genuinely useful. Whether the topic is funding, exits or the everyday challenges of building a business, there's always something to take away.
What sets FFR apart is the warmth and the safe space created that allows people to share openly, ask the questions they might not ask elsewhere, and build real connections rather than just collect contacts. It's a direct reflection of Emmie's vision and the care she puts into every event alongside her lived experience which she willingly shares for the benefit of others.
I've attended as a partner and as an attendee, and both experiences have been equally valuable. If you're a female founder or you work alongside them, this is a community worth being part of. Well done team FFR!

Fantastic accelerator and resources- run by inspiring and experienced entrepreneurs. So pleased to be a part of this community.
