Raaise connects founders with aligned investors\, streamlining fundraising to drive capital into solutions tackling the world’s biggest challenges. \nFeatured Speaker \nLeah Clearwater boasts a diverse career in the wine tourism and hospitality industry\, working in a range of business types over 27 years.

It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face\, both in personal and professional spheres. \n\nWe look forward joining with our community in solidarity with the global movement for equality and celebrating the wonderful women in our region.
