Fueling a Movement,
Not Just a Moment

At Stella, we know that real change requires real resources. Our sponsors and funding partners make everything we do possible—from accelerating women-led startups to building national communities of female investors.

These incredible partners don’t just write checks—they show up, advocate, and activate networks to close the gender gap in entrepreneurship and venture capital. Together, we’re building an ecosystem where women are funded, amplified, and paid. Because when women rise, we all rise. And our sponsors are the ones lifting the platform.

Thank You to Our Impact Sponsors

We are proud to be backed by a growing list of values-aligned organizations, corporations, and institutions committed to equity, innovation, and inclusive economic development.
