"10% more likely to be accepted" so is that because you favor applications from female entrepreneurs? It sure seems like you do

Hi Product Hunters, Megan Todd, Founder Institute and I are proud to introduce the Female Founder Initiative Impact Report. Our organization's goal is to have a lasting impact on global inclusion for women. By 2020, we aim for female-founded companies to comprise 40% of Founder Institute's annual portfolio. We believe by providing women founders with a diverse group of resources and opportunities to start, grow, and fund their companies, that this will positively impact the gender gap in startups, global technology, and venture capital. If there are any questions I can answer, I am happy to. -Rachel
