March 8th: International Women’s Day – Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget

-

Blockchain remains a male-dominated industry, with women holding only 26% of leadership positions in Web3.

This gap shows the need for targeted initiatives like Bitget’s $10M Blockchain4Her initiative, which has directly supported over 1,000 women in the past year through funding, mentorship, and networking.

By providing $50,000 in grants and launching platforms like Pitch n Slay, we are seeing tangible results—women-led projects are securing capital and scaling in a competitive industry.

Efforts like these are not just about representation but about measurable change. The Blockchain4Her Ambassador Program has brought together influential female leaders who are actively mentoring and guiding the next generation.

Our mentorship initiative builds on this by pairing aspiring entrepreneurs with those who have successfully navigated the Web3 space.

The introduction of the Blockchain4Her Pin, inspired by cultural traditions, is another step toward making the movement visible and engaging a broader audience beyond digital spaces.

While progress is evident, there is still work to be done. Women-founded startups receive only 2% of total venture capital funding, and blockchain is no exception.

Bitget is committed to improving this figure by backing women-led ventures with capital, strategic support, and industry connections.

Our focus remains on delivering real opportunities—whether through funding, education, or strategic partnerships—so that women are not just participants in Web3 but are shaping its future.
