SUPPORT FOR WOMEN FOUNDERS

And Harvard is among the best universities for female entrepreneurship and funding. According to Pitchbook’s summer 2024 rankings of the number of female founders coming out of top global universities, Harvard University ranks third for undergraduate students, with $6.2 billion raised, and first for graduate students, with $15.5 billion raised.
