Closing the funding gap through AI & Web3

Full female founder teams receive only 2.2% of the whole VC funds in the world. What if we could solve this with AI and Web3? New technologies such as AI, Web3 and DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organisations) can open doors to more diverse groups and create inclusive platforms for communities to collaborate. Thousand Faces is the first exclusive investment club using eco-friendly NFTs to finance female-led projects with an environmental focus by providing necessary educational and financial support.
