Female Founders Rise 💥| Advisor | Mum of 4 | Digital + Media + Marketing | Exited Founder

I'm on a mission to make entrepreneurship more accessible.
I set up my first business at 25, and since then, I have successfully set up, grown and sold multiple companies (and had a few failures on the journey too!)
Entrepreneurship is what I love.  

Most recently, I’ve been focused on Female Founders Rise [FFR] - a community of 10K female and non-binary founders 
>> https://femalefoundersrise.com/

I’m also a micro-investor in 30 women-led businesses, a speaker, and co-host of The Fundraising Grind (a podcast about helping you get your business funded with my friend Mae Yip)

At FFR, our mission is to empower women to achieve financial freedom through entrepreneurship.  

We do that through 4 pillars:

➕ Community - we come together for connection, collaboration, and support.  Being a founder can be a lonely journey, and we want to be there for each other

➕ Funding - we've launched Cohort 4 of our fundraising accelerator - a free 8-week program to help 60+ female founders at a time on their fundraising journey

➕ Business Fundamentals - we run regular sessions and masterclasses on all things fundamental to growing a successful, sustainable business

➕ Awareness - we celebrate female founders and help them share their voices.  So far 700+ women have taken part in our personal branding challenge

We have partnered with brands like London Business School, Lloyds Bank, and Google, and hosted events for 100's of women all over the UK.  We have been featured in The Times, Sifted, and Forbes.

Come and join us on our mission 👉 femalefoundersrise.com


Why do I care?

I want the same opportunities for women entrepreneurs as their male counterparts. 
When I heard about the funding gap, I was shocked and decided I'd try and do something about it.  
In the last few years, I have found my "Why" and a great deal of joy from being around so many incredible women doing amazing things.

Lavinia D. Osbourne

Linkedin Top Voice I CEO of Women in Blockchain Talks I Innovate Finance Powerlist 2022 l CogX Gender Equality Leader 2022 I Wirex's Rising Women in Crypto Powerlist 2021

Hey there! My name is Lavinia, and I am an award-winning Blockchain business and Web3 thought leader as well as a consultant with a focus on #DEI and female leadership.

I am also the founder of Women in Blockchain Talks, the award-winning and No1 global networking and education blockchain platform that shines a spotlight on dynamic women in the Blockchain ecosystem, which I started in 2019. I am an international speaker, trainer, and effective event moderator.

In the last three years, I have been listed as one of LinkedIn’s Top Voices in Technology & Innovation 2021, and as one of Wirex’s Rising Women in Crypto Power List 2021. I have been interviewed by CryptonitesTV, and Decrypt Podcast as well as featured in several articles by CoinTelegraph – all leading media platforms in the Blockchain space.

I am proud to say I am the winner of the Women in Tech 100 award 2021 and I have been nominated for several others around diversity and inclusivity. 

People tell me that I bring a fresh and accessible approach to complex subjects and I have a deep desire to uplift individuals, especially women, financially, professionally, and personally.

With WiBT, and now Crypto Kweens - my new NFT Marketplace business, I hope to decrease the gender gap in Blockchain and its ecosystem, by providing different ways of learning about the technology and showing people different ways to get involved with it, for example, my Women in Blockchain Talks campaign “50k Women into Blockchain by 2023” - https://campaign.womenininblockchaintalks.com

There is a lot more to me than the above but it is a start! I look forward to getting to know you!
